Introduction
The testing performed for this report is designed to accelerate the predominant failure mode, electro-migration
(EM), for the devices under test. The devices are stressed at high temperature and DC biased to simulate a lifetime
of use at typical operating temperatures. Using the Arrhenius equation, the acceleration factor (AF) is calculated for
the stress testing based on the stress temperature and the typical use operating temperature.
This report is intended to summarize all of the High Temperature Operating Life Test (HTOL) data for the
PHEMT-H process. The FIT/MTTF data contained in this report includes all the stress testing performed on this
process to date and will be updated periodically as additional data becomes available. Data sheets for the tested
devices can be found at www.hittite.com.
Glossary of Terms & Definitions:
1. HTOL: High Temperature Operating Life. This test is used to determine the effects of bias conditions and
temperature on semiconductor devices over time. It simulates the devices’ operating condition in an accelerated
way, through high temperature and/or bias voltage, and is primarily for device qualification and reliability
monitoring. This test was performed in accordance with JEDEC JESD22-A108.
2. Operating Junction Temp (Toj): Temperature of the die active circuitry during typical operation.
3. Stress Junction Temp (Tsj): Temperature of the die active circuitry during stress testing.

PHEMT-H Failure Rate Estimate
Based on the HTOL test results, a failure rate estimation was determined using the following
parameters:
With Device Operating Case Temp = 85°C
HMC863 (QTR11012)
Operating Junction Temp (Toj) =150°C(423°K)
Stress Junction Temp (Tsj) = 242°C(515°K)
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166)
Operating Junction Temp (Toj) =131°C(404°K)
Stress Junction Temp (Tsj) = 131°C(404°K)
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166)
Operating Junction Temp (Toj) =131°C(404°K)
Stress Junction Temp (Tsj) = 131°C(404°K)
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00371)
Operating Junction Temp (Toj) =150°C(423°K)
Stress Junction Temp (Tsj) = 150°C(423°K)
Device hours:
HMC863 (QTR11012) = (71 X 1000hrs) = 71,000 hours
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166) = (48 X 2000hrs) = 96,000 hours
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166) = (40 X 3500hrs) = 140,000 hours
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00371) = (146 X 1000hrs) = 146,000 hours
For PHEMT-H MMIC, Activation Energy = 1.7 eV
Acceleration Factor (AF):
QTR: 2013- 00260
Wafer Process: PHEMT-H
Rev: 04
HMC863 (QTR11012) Acceleration Factor = exp[1.7/8.6 e-5(1/423-1/515)] = 4222.4
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166) Acceleration Factor = exp[1.7/8.6 e-5(1/404-1/404)] = 1.0
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00166) Acceleration Factor = exp[1.7/8.6 e-5(1/404-1/404)] = 1.0
HMC1050 & HMC1051 (QTR2012-00371) Acceleration Factor = exp[1.7/8.6 e-5(1/423-1/423)] = 1.0
Equivalent hours = Device hours x Acceleration Factor
Equivalent hours = (71,000x4222.4)+(96,000x1.0)+(140,000x1.0)+(146,000x1.0) = 3.00x108 hours
Since there were no failures and we used a time terminated test, F=0, and R = 2F+2 = 2
The failure rate was calculated using Chi Square Statistic:
at 60% and 90% Confidence Level (CL), with 0 units out of spec
and a 85°C package backside temp;
Failure Rate
8
λ60 = [(χ2)60,2]/(2X 3.00x10 )] = 1.8/ 6.00x108 = 3.05x10-9 failures/hour or 3.0
8
λ90 = [(χ2)90,2]/(2X 3.00x10 )] = 4.6/ 6.00x108 = 7.68x10-9 failures/hour or 7.7
FIT or MTTF = 3.28x107 Hours
FIT or MTTF = 1.30x108 Hours
