FAILURE MECHANISMS AND MODELS FOR SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES |
JEP122H | Sep 2016 |
This publication provides a list of failure mechanisms and their associated activation energies or acceleration factors that may be used in making system failure rate estimations when the only available data is based on tests performed at accelerated stress test conditions. The method to be used is the Sum-of-the-Failure-Rates method. This publication also provides guidance in the selection of reliability modeling parameters, namely functional form, apparent thermal activation energy values and sensitivity to stresses such as power supply voltage, substrate current, current density, gate voltage, relative humidity, temperature cycling range, mobile ion concentration, etc. Committee(s): JC-14.2 Available for purchase: $163.00 Add to Cart Paying JEDEC Members may login for free access. |

DISCONTINUING USE OF THE MACHINE MODEL FOR DEVICE ESD QUALIFICATIONStatus: Reaffirmed September 2020 |
JEP172A | Jul 2015 |
Over the last several decades the so called "machine model" (aka MM) and its application to the required ESD component qualification has been grossly misunderstood. The scope of this JEDEC document is to present evidence to discontinue use of this particular model stress test without incurring any reduction in the IC component's ESD reliability for manufacturing. In this regard, the document's purpose is to provide the necessary technical arguments for strongly recommending no further use of this model for IC qualification. The published document should be used as a reference to propagate this message throughout the industry. Committee(s): JC-14.3 Free download. Registration or login required. |

NEAR-TERM DRAM LEVEL ROWHAMMER MITIGATION |
JEP300-1 | Mar 2021 |
RAM process node transistor scaling for power and DRAM capacity has made DRAM cells more sensitive to disturbances or transient faults. This sensitivity becomes much worse if external stresses are applied in a meticulously manipulated sequence, such as Rowhammer. Rowhammer related papers have been written outside of JEDEC, but some assumptions used in those papers didn’t explain the problem very clearly or correctly, so the perception for this matter is not precisely understood within the industry. This publication defines the problem and recommends following mitigations to address such concerns across the DRAM industry or academia. Item 1866.01. Committee(s): JC-42 Free download.

SYSTEM LEVEL ROWHAMMER MITIGATION |
JEP301-1 | Mar 2021 |
A DRAM rowhammer security exploit is a serious threat to cloud service providers, data centers, laptops, smart phones, self-driving cars and IoT devices. Hardware research and development will take time. DRAM components, DRAM DIMMs, System-on-chip (SoC), chipsets and system products have their own design cycle time and overall life time. This publication recommends best practices to mitigate the security risks from rowhammer attacks. Item 1866.02. Committee(s): JC-42 Free download. Registration or login required. |
