JED EC JESD22-A123 Reverse Bias Temperature Stress Testing
The JEDEC JESD22-A123 standard defines a method for testing the reverse bias temperature stress (RBTS) of semiconductor devices, particularly focusing on diodes and other similar electronic components. This type of stress testing is crucial for ensuring that semiconductors can withstand extreme environmental conditions, which is essential in various sectors including aerospace, automotive, and consumer electronics.
The JESD22-A123 protocol involves subjecting the device under test (DUT) to a reverse bias voltage while increasing the temperature. This procedure simulates real-world conditions where devices may experience high temperatures combined with reverse voltages. The objective is to identify any potential failure modes that could compromise the integrity and reliability of the semiconductor.
The testing process requires precise control over both the applied voltage and the ambient temperature, which are critical factors in determining the success or failure of a component under RBTS conditions.
