Method No. |
Name of Method |
Purpose |
Equipment Needed |
|
1004 |
Moisture Resistance Test |
To evaluate in an accelerated manner the resistance of component parts and constituents to the effects of high-humidity and heat conditions |
Uses temperature/humidity chambers capable of cycling conditions |
|
1005 |
Steady-State Life Test |
To determine the reliability of devices subjected to specified conditions (standard: 125 deg C with steady-state bias) over an extended period of time (standard: 1000 hours minimum) |
Uses a controlled temperature chamber/oven, power supplies, measuring devices |
|
1006 |
Intermittent Life Test |
To determine the reliability of devices subjected to specified conditions that involve cyclical "on-off" variations in electrical stresses |
Same as Method 1005 but electrical excitation must be dynamic |
|
1008 |
Stabilization Bake |
To determine the effect of storage at elevated temperatures without electrical stress applied |
Uses a controlled temperature chamber/oven |
|
1009 |
Salt Atmosphere Test |
To serve as an accelerated laboratory corrosion test simulating the effects of seacoast atmosphere |
Uses a salt atmosphere chamber |
|
1010 |
To determine the resistance of a part to extremes of high and low temperatures |
Uses a temp cycling chamber capable of providing and controlling temperatures |
|
|
1011 |
To determine the resistance of the part to sudden exposures to extreme changes in temperature and alternate exposures to these extremes |
Uses thermal shock equipment capable of providing and controlling specified temperatures |
|
|
1012 |
Thermal Characteristics Tests |
To determine the thermal characteristics of devices: junction temperature, thermal resistance, case and mounting temperatures, thermal response time, etc. |
Uses a controlled temperature chamber, thermocouples, electrical measurement equipment, IR microradiometer, etc. |
|
1013 |
Dew Point Test |
To detect the presence of moisture trapped inside a device package that may affect device parameters, i.e., leakage current |
Uses an equipment that can expose the device to the specified high temp down to -65 deg C while measuring affected parameters |
|
1014 |
To determine the hermeticity of the seal of devices with internal cavities |
Uses a fine leak tester and a gross leak tester |
|
|
1015 |
To eliminate units with marginal defects that can result in early life failures |
Uses a burn-in oven capable of providing high temperature (100-250 deg C) and electrical stress |
|
|
1016 |
Life/Reliability Characterization Tests |
To determine life distributions, life acceleration characteristics, and failure rate potential of devices |
Uses a burn-in oven capable of providing high temperature (200-300 deg C) and electrical stress |
|
1018 |
Internal Water Vapor Content Test |
To measure the water vapor content of the atmosphere inside a hermetically-sealed device |
Uses a mass spectrometer or moisture sensor, vacuum chamber, and a piercing system |
