  • Abstract
    Accelerated step stress and constant-stress reliability tests have been performed on trimetal MOS and bipolar IC chips wire-and-beam-tape bonded in both plastic and hermetic packages. A failure mechanism related to a high-temperature chemical reaction between the epoxy molding compound and the materials of the device support structure was identified and a solution provided.
