      Standard Test Data Format is a typical file format used for storing measurement data generated by Automatic Tester Equipment.

    STDF file format:

    A file format defines how the data in the file is structured. A file format is determined by the file extension and signature, so JPEG images have the extension .jpg and the first bytes in the file are ÿØÿ. Frequently, however, one file extension is used by different programs for different file formats, and one file format for different file extensions. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our examination of the STDF files comes to the following conclusion:

    The file type with the extension 'STDF' is mainly used by one program with a specific format. The two most popular formats are as follows:
