Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of electronic engineering and microelectronics, specifically to an automated testing and screening method for electronic components. Background Technology
[0002] Electronic components are the "cornerstone" of electronic devices, and their quality directly determines the reliability and performance of the final product. With the development of semiconductor technology, components are evolving towards "miniaturization, integration, and multi-functionality," with the number of parameters increasing from a dozen to hundreds, making it difficult for manual testing to cover all characteristics.
[0003] With the surge in demand for reliability in various application scenarios, fields such as automotive electronics, aerospace (where components need to be radiation-resistant and vibration-resistant), and medical equipment (where sensor accuracy needs to be within 0.1%) have an urgent need for "zero-defect" screening.
[0004] Mass production scales in industries such as consumer electronics and new energy can reach millions per batch. Traditional manual testing (taking several minutes per chip) is extremely inefficient, and manual operation is prone to errors (such as reading deviations and poor contact), resulting in poor screening consistency. Automated testing can reduce labor costs, replace more than 50% of manual labor, and reduce the flow of defective products to downstream industries through rapid screening. For example, if a chip fault is found after soldering a mobile phone motherboard, the rework cost increases by more than 10 times.
[0005] Industry 4.0 and "smart manufacturing" require the testing process to be integrated into the production line closed loop: data is collected in real time through automated testing systems and fed back to the production end to optimize processes (such as adjusting wafer cutting parameters through chip test data), so as to achieve digital linkage of "testing-production-improvement".
[0006] However, there is still room for improvement in existing technologies, mainly in terms of insufficient test coverage and scenario simulation. For example, the performance of complex components is affected by multiple dimensions such as temperature, humidity, and electromagnetic interference. Existing automated systems mostly focus on testing "normal temperature static parameters," making it difficult to simulate extreme conditions such as RF power stability at -55°C, leading to missed detection of "potential defects." Test parameters emphasize explicit parameters while neglecting implicit ones, prioritizing the testing of easily quantifiable explicit parameters but ignoring implicit characteristics, resulting in selected products being "short-term qualified but long-term unsuccessful." Summary of the Invention
[0007] To address the aforementioned technical problems, an automated testing and screening method for electronic components is provided. This technical solution solves the problems of insufficient implicit feature extraction capability and difficulty in multi-source data fusion.

[0029] Transient response of carrier mobility was obtained by applying a nanosecond-level high-voltage pulse and using a 4D carrier imaging system to plot the mobility distribution.
[0030] The degradation model correlation shows that if the temperature coefficient of mobility is greater than a predetermined threshold, it conforms to the Arrhenius model and is judged as normal thermal degradation; if the temperature coefficient of mobility is less than the predetermined threshold, an electromigration risk warning is triggered.
[0031] Thermoacoustic emission signal crack detection employs a multi-modal sensor array, including a piezoelectric sensor to capture the acoustic emission energy of microcrack propagation; and an infrared thermal imager to simultaneously record the transient temperature rise in the crack region.

A corrosion rate equation is established, and the threshold is dynamically adjusted. When the corrosion rate exceeds the predetermined threshold, it is judged as a high risk of electrochemical migration, and the upper limit of the allowable leakage current is automatically tightened from the standard value and the coating thickness is re-inspected.
[0035] The thermomechanical fatigue model takes as input parameters the number of temperature cycles, heating and cooling rates, cumulative thermoacoustic emission energy, and measured values of the thermal expansion coefficient of the packaging material. Lifetime prediction is based on the Coffin-Manson correction formula with dynamic threshold adjustment. If the predicted lifetime is a predetermined number of cycles, three additional extreme temperature shock tests are forcibly added, and the thermoacoustic emission energy threshold is adjusted to the predetermined threshold.
[0036] Preferably, S3 specifically includes:
[0037] The dynamic threshold adjustment strategy uses a multi-parameter weighted decision tree to construct an implicit parameter weight matrix and dynamically adjust the weight ratio according to the application scenario. A comprehensive score is calculated, and failure is determined when the comprehensive score is greater than a predetermined threshold, and feedback is given to the test item threshold in real time.
[0038] The machine learning online correction uses a Bayesian optimization algorithm to update the model parameters based on historical data after a predetermined number of tests.

[0041] Bias-temperature stress is applied using an electrothermal coupling loading mode. The static bias is applied as a predetermined multiple of the rated voltage, while the ambient temperature is simultaneously raised to a predetermined temperature range. Dynamic disturbance is applied by superimposing square wave switching stress to simulate the actual switching losses of power devices.

[0042] Preferably, S4 specifically includes:
[0043] The model quantifies the amount of hidden drift and the dielectric relaxation spectrum drift. It calculates the rate of change of the loss factor before and after accelerated aging in the low-frequency band. When the rate of change before and after accelerated aging is greater than a predetermined proportion, the polymer encapsulation is determined to have failed hydrolysis. When the shift of the characteristic relaxation peak is greater than a predetermined threshold, the concentration of ionic impurities is indicated to be excessive.
[0044] Carrier mobility decay, extract mobility degradation rate under pulse test, thermoacoustic emission energy accumulation, and statistically analyze the total energy of acoustic emission signal during acceleration.
[0045] Dynamic elimination criteria, multi-parameter fusion decision tree, parameter types include dielectric loss variation, mobility decay, thermoacoustic energy, and quantum tunneling current.
[0046] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0047] This invention proposes a method to dynamically invoke a pre-set sequence of extreme operating conditions based on the target application scenario. The temperature control module achieves extreme temperature jumps from -196℃ to 300℃ through liquid nitrogen injection and silicon carbide infrared heating; the humidity module maintains 95% RH saturated water vapor at 85℃; and the electromagnetic interference module injects full-band noise with a field strength of 200V / m to solve the distortion problem of traditional single-stress accelerated testing.
[0048] By simultaneously capturing three latent parameters, dielectric relaxation spectroscopy is used to detect epoxy resin molecular chain breakage, transient response of carrier mobility is used to locate lattice defects, and thermoacoustic emission signals are used to capture microcrack propagation. This enables molecular-level early diagnosis of latent failures such as encapsulation hydrolysis, ion migration, and fatigue cracks, reducing the false negative rate by more than 90% compared to traditional methods.
[0049] An adaptive criterion system is constructed based on a physical failure model. The electrochemical corrosion model is linked to humidity, ion current, and dielectric loss parameters to dynamically tighten the leakage current threshold. The thermomechanical fatigue model is based on the temperature change rate and acoustic emission cumulative energy to correct the lifetime equation in real time. Through Bayesian optimization algorithm, the model parameters are automatically updated after every thousand tests, so that the misjudgment rate continues to converge to <0.5%, which is significantly better than the coarse screening with a fixed threshold.
