Gross Leak Hermeticity Testing Analysis.

Abstract

Method 1014, Seal Test, of MIL-STD-883, strictly defines the test conditions of fine and gross hermeticity testing as they pertain to microcircuit packages. The gross leak tests of Method 1014 and the following two procedures are described and evaluated in this report: (1) Weight Test, and (2) Electronic Leak Detection. Primary areas of interest which are covered include the sensitivity and repeatability of each test; susceptibility to destruction; the effect of package constructions; and test selection criteria. Completion of this effort has allowed the revision of Method 1014. The primary intent of this report is to provide a supplemental, documented guide to both microcircuit manufacturers and Air Force contractors engaged in screen testing and device procurement, concerning the subject Seal Test contained in MIL-STD-883.
