Reliability Evaluation for Integrated Circuit with Defective Interconnect under Electromigration
In electromigration degradation process the existing physical defects on interconnect play a critical role by significantly accelerating the EM damage under increased current density and elevated temperature. In this work the simulation models were upgraded in the IC reliability simulator ARET to incorporate the effect of interconnect physical defects in expected lifetime prediction. Then based...
متن کاملBGA Reliability of Multilayer Ceramic Integrated Circuit (MCIC) Devices
Multilayer ceramic integrated circuit (MCIC) devices using low temperature cofired ceramic (LTCC) technology have advantages in the wireless applications attributed to the unique RF materials’ properties and ease of multilayering leading to high Q RF devices. In this paper, the reliability of MCIC-BGA was evaluated under thermal cycling and mechanical test conditions. Two commercial metal paste...
متن کاملAccurate Quantitative Physics-of-Failure Approach to Integrated Circuit Reliability
Modern electronics typically consist of microprocessors and other complex integrated circuits (ICs) such as FPGAs, ADCs, and memory. They are susceptible to electrical, mechanical and thermal modes of failure like other components on a printed circuit board, but due to their materials, complexity and roles within a circuit, accurately predicting a failure rate has become difficult, if not impos...
متن کاملDigital Integrated Circuit Testing using Transient Signal Analysis
A novel approach to testing CMOS digital circuits is presented that is based on an analysis of IDD switching transients on the supply rails and voltage transients at selected test points. W e present simulation and hardware experiments which show distinguishable characteristics between the transient waveforms of defective and non-defective devices. These variations are shown to exist for CMOS o...
متن کاملTLP and VFTLP Testing of Integrated Circuit ESD Protection
This paper presents electrical methods used to measure and analyze the operation of ESD protection circuits built into every lead of an Integrated Circuit (IC). These circuits clamp voltage threats to sensitive core circuits which enter through each connections to the outside world. Representative samples of each IC are tested for their ESD immunity level to insure a minimum level of protection...
