Reliability testing plays a crucial role in ensuring the longevity and functionality of technological products, which is paramount for gaining access to the finished product supply chain and establishing credibility in the marketplace. However, many companies struggle to effectively demonstrate product quality to downstream international brand makers.
Internal reliability test reports often lack the persuasiveness needed to convince international brand makers of product quality. Additionally, the scarcity of qualified third-party labs proficient in international specifications and testing methodologies poses a significant challenge.
Addressing these challenges head-on, iST’s state-of-the-art Reliability Test Lab offers a comprehensive solution. Leveraging our extensive experience and cutting-edge technology, we simulate a diverse range of operating environments to ensure that every component meets or exceeds the demanding standards of today’s competitive semiconductor market. Our proactive approach identifies potential weaknesses early on, guaranteeing long-lasting product performance and paving the way for market success.
iST’s Reliability Testing Services
Component Level Reliability Test (CLRT)
Our reliability test lab conducts various tests to verify the durability of electronic parts under stress. These include Accelerated Environmental Stress Tests, Accelerated Lifetime Simulation Tests, Package Assembly Integrity Tests, Electrical Verification Tests, and Mechanical Stress Tests.
Board Level Reliability Test (BLRT)
We offer board-level reliability tests to assess products’ durability under mechanical and thermal stress. Tests include Low and High Strain Rate Tests, Steady-State Tests, and Mechanical Stress Testing. Integrated failure analysis is also provided to help find possible root causes of any defects identified during the testing process.
PCB Design Verification
Our lab offers testing services and test flow solutions tailored to customer requirements, we provide test interface design for wafer level, chip level, and package-level testing, including probe-card, load board, burn-in board, as well the BLR test board. This streamlined approach helps reduce costs and optimize testing processes.
Automotive Electronics Test
We specialize in testing automotive ICs for reliability using AEC-Q standard and other industry-standard methods. Our Automotive BLR Verification process evaluates board-level reliability against automotive stressors, ensuring the dependability of vehicle electronic systems.
Surface Mount Technique (SMT)
We conduct small-batch, multi-varied SMT experiments to simulate PCB assembly quality in mass production, customizing tests based on specific needs.
Warpage Verification
Our advanced equipment simulates component and PCB warpage, allowing adjustments to SMT parameters for optimal welding quality and cost savings.
Other specialized tests
Our reliability test lab also provides the Accelerated Corrosion Verification Platform. It replicates corrosive conditions to verify the product’s durability. The PCB Pad Cratering Validation Platform evaluates the reliability of products with a cold ball pull test and localizes the defects with the acoustic emission test. Also, the Trace Weight Analysis solutions use the newly deployed Mettler Toledo microbalance, ensuring precise material trace weight measurement and analysis. Through Packaged Devices Weight Loss/Gain Analysis, iST evaluates the effects of temperature and humidity on components during soldering. These specialized tests help understand product endurance and efficacy under different situations.
At iST, our accurate test findings are backed by extensive experience and a robust database. We aim to predict and improve product performance over time, enhancing consumer confidence and market readiness. Our holistic approach ensures compliance with international standards and customer specifications, bridging the gap between product ideation and market success.
