Reliability Stress Screening of Electronic Hardware

전자산업 스트레스 스크리닝에 관한 연구

With the continuous advancement in electronics technology, especially the usage of new materials and the introduction of new and immature manufacturing process, stress and time dependent types of physical, chemical and mechanical imperfections are introduced to the electronic hardware. These types of imperfections are called flaws. A reliability stress screening process(RSS) is a process which involves the application of operational and/or environmental stress to electronic hardware on a 100% basis, for the purpose of precipitating inherent, as well as process-induced, flaws while neither destroying nor degrading in a significant way the hardware being stressed.
