An inspection apparatus includes a light sensor that detects light from a semiconductor device to which an electric signal has been input, an optical system that guides light from the semiconductor device to the light sensor, and a control device electrically connected to the light sensor. The control device includes a measurement unit that acquires waveform data obtained by optical measurement for each of a plurality of positions on a defective semiconductor device and waveform data obtained by the optical measurement for each of a plurality of positions on a non-defective semiconductor device, a calculation unit that calculates a degree of correspondence between the waveform data of the defective semiconductor device and the waveform data of the non-defective semiconductor device, and an analysis unit that analyzes a defective part of the defective semiconductor device on the basis of the degree of correspondence for each of the plurality of positions.

A method for measuring performance of at least one DUT in a reverberation chamber over a frequency band, the method including, iteratively: generating a fading scenario by the reverberation chamber; identifying at least one measurement sub-band included in the frequency band, wherein the at least one measurement sub-band complies with a gain flatness criterion; measuring performance of the at least one DUT in the at least one identified measurement sub-band, thereby generating at least one performance measurement result; accumulating the at least one performance measurement result; and determining measurement coverage and terminating the performance measurement in case the measurement coverage meets a coverage criterion.

Embodiments described herein may be related to apparatuses, processes, and techniques related to active optical plugs used to cover optical connectors of a photonics package to protect the connectors. The active optical plugs may also be used to perform testing of the photonics package, including generating light to be sent to the photonics package and to detect light received from the photonics package as part of the test protocol. This allows testing the optical connection and the photonics package, without exposing the optical connections of the package to damage from dust or physical contact. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
