Burn-In System Compliance + Qualification Services

Burn-in is a critical component of semiconductor qualification, recommended in some industries and required by law in others. Our team helps ensure your systems and processes are aligned with your specific standards and that your devices meet proper compliance requirements.

Service Overview

For many semiconductor manufacturers, burn-in isn’t just a production step; it’s an evaluation that ensures device testing meets industry or company standards. Compliance is key for numerous industries, and Micro Control Company is no stranger to working with our clients to meet these requirements. The specific requirements vary by industry and end market, but the consequences of getting it wrong are consistent: field failures, qualification delays, and the kind of scrutiny no manufacturer wants. Micro Control helps customers align their burn-in configuration and documentation with the frameworks that govern their programs, from JEDEC and AEC-Q100 to customer-defined reliability specifications.

Key areas covered include:

Alignment to JEDEC, AEC-Q100, and helping customer align with reliability specifications
Configuration documentation for qualification reporting and audits
Applicable across automotive, consumer electronics, AI, and high-reliability markets

Key Features & Benefits

The Stakes of Getting Burn-In Wrong

Burn-in conditions that are too mild can allow early-life failures to reach customers. Conditions that are too aggressive risk stressing good devices unnecessarily. Either outcome has downstream consequences, and both are avoidable with the right configuration.

Required or Recommended, We Help You Meet the Standard

In automotive and aerospace applications, burn-in screening is often a regulatory requirement. In consumer electronics and AI applications, it’s increasingly expected. Wherever you fall on that spectrum, Micro Control’s team can help you meet the standard that applies to your products.

Every Node Transition Deserves a Fresh Look

Stress conditions defined for a previous process node don’t automatically carry over. Leakage behavior, thermal characteristics, and failure mechanisms all change as technology scales. A configuration review at each transition is a standard part of responsible qualification practice.

Documentation That Holds Up to Scrutiny

Qualification documentation is only valuable if it’s accurate and defensible. Micro Control helps customers build the configuration records and process documentation that stand up to internal reviews and external audits alike.

WE’RE BUILT TO BUILD

Burn-In That Your Qualification Program Can Depend On

From new device introductions to ongoing production, Micro Control helps make sure the burn-in portion of your qualification process is doing exactly what it’s supposed to, accurately and repeatably.
