  • Method and system for dynamic duration burn-in
    Patent number: 6377897
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and system for dynamic duration burn-in. A computer system is provided having a processing unit, input device and storage. The storage includes a performance database for tracking burn-in test results of a plurality of ICs. Test criteria is determined against which the burn-in test results will be compared. The plurality of ICs are stressed for a burn-in interval in a stress chamber and the plurality of ICs are tested to determine a failure rate from burn-in. The failure rate is compared to the test criteria and the steps of stressing, testing and comparing are repeated until the failure rate fulfills the test criteria.
    Type: Grant
