Optimizing environmental stress screening using mathematical programming

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 22 - Publication in policy or professional journal

Abstract

Environmental stress screening (ESS) is widely used in the electronics industry as a means of removing early failures. It is a process that calls for proper planning because inadequate duration is ineffective and prolonged screening can incur unnecessary costs. This paper describes an approach that uses mathematical programming to ensure that the right amount of screening is in place at each assembly level. Factors considered are screening cost and desired operational reliability.
