This standard establishes a defined method and conditions for performing a temperature-humidity life test with bias applied. The test is used to evaluate the reliability of nonhermetic packaged solid state devices in humid environments. It employs high temperature and humidity conditions to accelerate the penetration of moisture through external protective material or along interfaces between the external protective coating and conductors or other features that pass through it. This revision enhances the ability to perform this test on a device which cannot be biased to achieve very low power dissipation.

This document describes design of test structures needed to assess the reliability of aluminum-copper, refractory metal barrier interconnect systems. This includes any metal interconnect system where a refractory metal barrier or other barrier material prevents the flow of aluminum and/or copper metal ions from moving between interconnect layers. This document is not intended to show design of test structures to assess aluminum or aluminum-copper alloy systems, without barriers to Al and Cu ion movement, nor for Cu only metal systems. Some total interconnect systems might not include barrier materials on all metal layers. The structures in this standard are designed for cases where a barrier material separates two Al or Al alloy metal layers. The purpose of this document is to describe the design of test structures needed to assess electromigration (EM) and stress-induced-void (SIV) reliability of AlCu barrier metal systems.

This method provides procedures to calculate sample estimates and their confidence intervals for the electromigration model parameters of current density and temperature. The model parameter for current density is the exponent (n) to which the current density is raised in Black's equation. The parameter for temperature is the activation energy for the electromigration failure process.

This standard is to promote unification of content and format of semiconductor device failure-analysis reports so that reports from diverse laboratories may be easily read, compared, and understood by customers. Additional objectives are to ensure that reports can be easily ready by users, satisfactorily reproduced on copying machines, adequately transmitted by telefax, and conveniently stored in standard filing cabinets.

The purpose of this publication is to provide an overview of some of the most commonly used systems and test methods historically performed by manufacturers to assess and qualify the reliability of solid state products. The appropriate references to existing and proposed JEDEC (or EIA) standards and publications are cited. This document is also intended to provide an educational background and overview of some of the technical and economic factors associated with assessing and qualifying microcircuit reliability.

This test method provides optional conditions for preconditioning and soldering for the purpose of assessing the solderability of device package terminations. It provides procedures for dip & look solderability testing of through hole, axial and surface mount devices and a surface mount process simulation test for surface mount packages. The purpose of this test method is to provide a means of determining the solderability of device package terminations that are intended to be joined to another surface using lead (Pb) containing or Pb-free solder for the attachment.

This document describes a test method only; acceptance criteria and qualification requirements are not defined. This test method applies to solder ball pull force/energy testing prior to end-use attachment. Solder balls are pulled individually using mechanical jaws; force, fracture energy and failure mode data are collected and analyzed. Other specialized solder ball pull methods using a heated thermode, gang pulling of multiple solder joints, etc., are outside the scope of this document. Both low and high speed testing are covered by this document. This is a minor editorial revision to JESD22-A115A.
