Failure analysis is the study and presentation of observable or measurable phenomena. Risk assessment, on the other hand, is when root causes are studied to predict the potential for future failures. In this article, the author describes a structured problem-solving approach that consists of failure analysis, risk assessment, and advanced modeling. A case study is also presented in which the probability of future failures, due to a delamination defect, is determined based on field returns.

In this article, the authors evaluate micro CNC milling as an alternative to manual parallel lapping for mechanical cross-sectioning of flip-chip packaged samples. They describe both processes, and how they compare to other cross-sectioning techniques, and clearly illustrate the differences. SEM images of a manually polished sample show process-induced cracking, chipping, and delamination at the die-C4 interface. In contrast, the CNC-milled sample is artifact-free and the C4 bumps are uniformly exposed along the entire length of the cross-section.

This article reviews the basic principles of scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) and presents several case studies demonstrating its use in failure analysis and counterfeit detection. The FA case studies show how SAM is used to detect delamination, cracking, and manufacturing defects in ceramic chip capacitors and resistors, voids in a full-bridge rectifier, and a radiation-induced defect in a microprocessor. In cases involving counterfeit ICs, CSAM images reveal the presence of an abnormality on component packages, evidence of relabeling, and popcorn fractures indicative of the use of excessive heat and force to dislodge components from circuit board assemblies.

With the July 2006 implementation of RoHS (the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment), the electronics reliability industry has seen a changeover to lead-free solders and “green” mold compounds that have no bromine- or antimony-based flame retardants. This article addresses some of the challenges caused by implementation of the new requirements.

This article presents a new technique for monitoring the health of lithium-ion cells. Whereas traditional methods use current, voltage, and temperature data to infer the overall health of the cell, the new method uses ultrasonic measurements to assess structural changes such as swelling, expansion, ruffling, and delamination. The article explains how and why these changes occur, how they are measured, and how they correlate with loss of battery capacity, safety, and failure. It also discusses the effect of charge and discharge cycles and the factors that contribute to gas generation.

Scanning acoustic tomography (SAT) is widely used to detect defects such as voids and delamination in electronic devices. In this article, the authors explain how they improved the spatial resolution and detection sensitivity of SAT by switching from a conventional piezoelectric probe to a capacitive micromachined ultrasound transducer (CMUT) and by using pulse compression signal processing. They also present examples showing how the improvement makes it possible to detect very small defects in multilayer stacks and BGA packages whether in through-transmission or reflection imaging mode.

This article describes two accelerated reliability tests that can help shorten product development cycles for power semiconductor packages. One test simulates the effects of temperature cycling by applying a series of thermal shocks to the test sample. The other test assesses the bond between metals and molding compounds as a measure of thermal cycle resistance. A button shear test is used to measure changes in adhesion strength as a function of time and temperature.

Plasma focused ion beam (PFIB) systems can generate ion beams with much higher current and are therefore able to remove larger volumes of material at much faster rates while still maintaining precise control of the beam and its milling action. This article explains how the improved performance of PFIB is leading to new applications in delayering, deprocessing, and site-specific failure analysis.

New flip chip focused ion beam (FC FIB) systems overcome this limitation, however, making it possible to access circuits from the backside through the bulk silicon. In this article, the authors explain how they used the new system to gain access to signal lines for backside waveform acquisition. They also describe some of the procedures they developed to repair and modify flip chip circuits from the backside and prepare cross-section samples from the backside for failure analysis and characterization.

Electronic components and assemblies are subjected to temperature variations at every stage of life, resulting in the buildup of internal stress. This article explains how such stress contributes to failures and introduces a measurement technique that allows users to visualize stress distributions and assess their effects on lifetime and reliability. Application examples illustrating the capabilities of the new topography and deformation measurement approach are also presented.
