This AOS product reliability report summarizes the qualification result for AO4948. Accelerated
environmental tests are performed on a specific sample size, and then followed by electrical test
at end point. Review of final electrical test result confirms that AO4948 passes AOS quality and
reliability requirements. The released product will be categorized by the process family and be
monitored on a quarterly basis for continuously improving the product quality.

Product Description:
The AO4948/L uses advanced trench technology to provide excellent RDS(ON) and low gate charge.
The two MOSFETs make a compact and efficient switch and synchronous rectifier combination
for use in DC-DC converters. A monolithically integrated Schottky diode in parallel with the
synchronous MOSFET to boost efficiency further. AO4948 and AO4948L are electrically identical.
-RoHS Compliant
-AO4948L is Halogen Free

Note A: The HTGB and HTRB reliability data presents total of available AO4948 and AO4948L
burn-in data up to the published date.
Note B: The pressure pot, temperature cycle and HAST reliability data for AO4948 and AO4948L
comes from the AOS generic package qualification data.
IV. Reliability Evaluation
FIT rate (per billion): 137
MTTF = 833 years
The presentation of FIT rate for the individual product reliability is restricted by the actual burn-in
sample size of the selected product (AO4948). Failure Rate Determination is based on JEDEC
Standard JESD 85. FIT means one failure per billion hours.
Failure Rate = Chi2 x 109 / [2 (N) (H) (Af)] = 1.83 x 109 / [2x2x77x258] = 137

MTTF = 10 / FIT = 7.30 x 10 hrs = 833 years
Chi² = Chi Squared Distribution, determined by the number of failures and confidence interval
N = Total Number of units from HTRB and HTGB tests
H = Duration of HTRB/HTGB testing
Af = Acceleration Factor from Test to Use Conditions (Ea = 0.7eV and Tuse = 55°C)
Acceleration Factor [Af] = Exp [Ea / k (1/Tj u – 1/Tj s)]
