Abstract:International audienceAccelerated life tests on microelectronic devices are needed to estimate their degradation under severe environment. THB (Temperature Humidity Bias) [1] at 85°C and 85%RH (relative humidity) is commonly used for reliability studies. Empirical acceleration laws, used for THB test take into account the temperature change (from 22°C to 85°C), but they do not quantify its impact of the corresponding thermo-elastic stress which it adds to the residual stress in the die and of possible microstr… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
