The power and temperature cycling test is performed to determine the ability of a device to withstand alternate exposures at high and low temperature extremes and simultaneously the operating biases are periodically applied and removed. It is intended to simulate worst case conditions encountered in application environments. The power and temperature cycling test is considered destructive and is only intended for device qualification. This test method applies to semiconductor devices that are subjected to temperature excursions and required to power on and off during all temperatures.

JEP162A, while establishing the complex nature of System Level ESD, proposes that an efficient ESD design can only be achieved when the interaction of the various components under ESD conditions are analyzed at the system level. This objective requires an appropriate characterization of the components and a methodology to assess the entire system using simulation data. This is applicable to system failures of different categories (such as hard, soft, and electromagnetic interference (EMI)). This type of systematic approach is long overdue and represents an advanced design approach which replaces the misconception, as discussed in detail in JEP161, that a system will be sufficiently robust if all components exceed a certain ESD level.

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.

These guidelines apply to GaAs Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuits (MMICs) and their individual component building blocks, such as GaAs Metal-Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MESFETs), Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistors (PHEMTs), Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBTs), resistors, and capacitors.  While the procedure described in this document may be applied to other semiconductor technologies, especially those used in RF and microwave frequency analog applications, it is primarily intended for technologies based on GaAs and related III-V material systems (InP, AlGaAs, InGaAs, InGaP, GaN, etc).

This stress test is intended to determine the ability of an EEPROM integrated circuit or an integrated circuit with an EEPROM module (such as a microprocessor) to sustain repeated data changes without failure (program/erase endurance) and to retain data for the expected life of the EEPROM (data retention). This Standard specifies the procedural requirements for performing valid endurance and retention tests based on a qualification specification. Endurance and retention qualification specifications (for cycle counts, durations, temperatures, and sample sizes) are specified in JESD47 or may be developed using knowledge-based methods as in JESD94.

This revision now encompasses administrative quality problems, in addition to the electrical and visual/mechanical quality problems that were addressed in the original release. A standard set of problem categories for each of these three types of component problems is presented for tracking and reporting purposes. A common set of customer and supplier expectations and requirements are set forth to help facilitate the successful problem analysis and corrective action of any type of component quality problem. Formerly known as EIA-671 (November 1996). Became JESD671-A after revision, December 1999.

This document describes backend-level test and data methods for the qualification of semiconductor technologies. It does not give pass or fail values or recommend specific test equipment, test structures or test algorithms. Wherever possible, it references applicable JEDEC such as JESD47 or other widely accepted standards for requirements documentation.

The Board Level Cyclic Bend Test Method is intended to evaluate and compare the performance of surface mount electronic components in an accelerated test environment for handheld electronic products applications. The purpose is to standardize the test methodology to provide a reproducible performance assessment of surface mounted components while duplicating the failure modes normally observed during product level test. This is not a component qualification test and is not meant to replace any product level test that may be needed to qualify a specific product and assembly.
