For the latest release, visit the GitHub Releases page.
About
The Semiconductor Test Library simplifies programming on the NI Semiconductor Test System (STS) and enables users to develop test programs efficiently using C#/.NET.
The Semiconductor Test Library includes the following high-level features:
- Interfaces and classes—Abstract instrument sessions and encapsulate the necessary pin and site awareness.
- Pin- and site-aware data types— Simplify instrument configuration and measurement results processing.
- Extension methods—Abstract common, high-level instrument operations.
- Parallelization methods—Abstract parallel for loops required to iterate over multiple instrument sessions regardless of how sessions map to pins or sites.
- Publishing methods—Simplify results publishing and add support for the SiteData and PinSiteData types.
- Utilities methods—Provide utility methods commonly required for writing test code.
- TestStand step types—Perform common operations, such as setting up and closing instruments, powering up a DUT, or executing common tests.
Software Requirements
You must have the following software to use the Semiconductor Test Library:
- STS Software 24.5 or later
- .NET Framework 4.8 or later
Visual Studio 2022 is highly recommended.
