Moderne Strategien -test tailoring- in der Prüftechnik für Korrosionsuntersuchungen in der Mikroelektronik

In former times environmental test techniques and simulations contented a summary of extreme conditions and declared a "worst case environment". The application of these tests led normaly to unrealistic strong efforts for the test specimen or products. Therefore in modern test techniques was envisaged to use or develop optimized environmental tests for well defined applications. This procedure for the estimation of the optimized test parameters and conditions, also called "test-tailoring", based on the principle of optimal correlation between test results and real efforts during the product life cycle. This gives the security, that the product withstand the expected environment and not only the test standard.
