Abstract

Zero Re-Burn-In methodology presented in this paper is based on statistical analysis of the historical manufacturing data on burn-in (BI) and re-burn-in (REBI) tests employed in semiconductor devices manufacturing. The goal is to reduce (or, if possible, to eliminate) REBI test so to lower the associated manufacturing cost and time while preserving the required low failure rate of the manufactured devices. The statistical processing and analysis of the production data sets are performed while employing the JMP software. The re-search has led to development of a logistic regression model capable of predicting results of the REBI tests before actually sending integrated circuit (IC) lots for the re-testing.
