Event Details:

The IEEE/CPMT 2003 Workshop on Accelerated Stress Testing
ASTR 2003

Over the last few years, Accelerated Stress Testing (AST) has been embraced by an ever widening array of worldwide companies seeking to reconcile the need for the highest quality product with the necessary push for early time-to-market. The purpose of the AST Workshop is to share ideas on better ways of accelerating and detecting hidden defects, flaws, and weaknesses in electronic and electro-mechanical hardware that would result in failures during usage. These techniques are focused on testing electronic hardware to destruction limits and root cause investigation to determine the physics-of-failure. The goal of AST is to produce mature products at market introduction and, in making it robust, the product can be screened for manufacturing defects with high combined stresses (beyond end-use specifications) for shorter lengths of time.

Topics include:
Advanced Approaches to AST
Electrodynamic vs. Repetitive Shock Vibration
Reliability Improvement Techniques
AST Data Collection/Analysis
Failure Analysis Techniques and Examples
Reliability Simulation and Modeling
Application of Physics of Failure Techniques
Stress Screening Techniques
AST Case Studies, including stress profiles
Stress other than temperature & vibration
Functional test During Stress Testing
AST Results on New Technologies

TUTORIALS: The all day tutorial program will be held on the first day of the Workshop and features well respected experts sharing their experiences and hard learned lessons. Two parallel sessions , Basic AST and Advanced AST Subjects, will ensure that experienced practitioners as well as those who are just entering the field will find useful and interesting presentations.
