This is achieved by selecting representative devices within a process, package or business unit and performing a series of reliability tests to ensure that the reliability has maintained over time. Listed below are the overall results for the last quarter. 1. High Temperature Operating Life (125° - 150°C; 0 failures) ✓ Failure Rate: 17 FITS (229,000 device-hours) ✓ Note: The Exponential Model is used to derive FIT rates (60% Confidence; EA = 0.6 eV). Also, Thermal and Voltage Acceleration are used to compute the overall acceleration factor. Weighted acceleration factors (WAF) for a group of products are calculated by taking the weighted average of each device’s acceleration factor multiplied by its corresponding device hours. All failures were inconclusive. 2. Data Retention Bake (150°C; 0 failures) ✓ Failure Rate: 20 FITS (397K device-hours) ✓ Note: The Exponential Model is used to derive FIT rates (60% Confidence; EA = 0.6 eV). Since there is no bias applied during testing and the stress temperature is fixed for all devices at 150°C, the acceleration factor is 117 for all groupings. 3. Temperature Cycle (-65°C to 150°C, 500 cycles) * ✓ Failure Rate: 0.00% (0 failures out of 320 units) 4. Temperature Humidity Bias (85°C/85%RH) and HAST (130°C/85%RH) * ✓ Failure Rate: 0.00% (0 failures out of 480K device-hours) ✓ Note: A 20:1 Acceleration Factor is used to combine HAST results with THB). 5. Steam Pressure Pot (121°C/100%RH) * ✓ Failure Rate: 0.00% (0 failures out of 160 units) RELIABILITY MONITOR 1 High Temperature Operating Life (sorted by FAMILY) 48 Hours REJ SS 168 Hours REJ SS 500 Hours REJ SS 1K Hours REJ SS BU QTR MCU 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 229 988 0 0 229 548 0 0 229 548 0 0 RFA 3 LAST 4Q 0 7,996 0 769 0 769 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 229 8,984 0 0 229 1,317 0 0 229 1,317 ATMEL Device-Hours* WAF EFR PPM FITS 229 548 229,000 569,120 236 236 0 0 17 7 0 616 1,116,396 134 0 6 0 0 229 1,164 229,000 1,685,516 236 168 0 0 17 3 RELIABILITY MONITOR 2 High Temperature Operating Life (sorted by TECHNOLOGY) 48 Hours REJ SS 168 Hours REJ SS 500 Hours REJ SS 1K Hours REJ SS TECH QTR UHF6 3 LAST 4Q 0 800 0 0 0 0 0 3 LAST 4Q 0 77 0 77 0 77 3 LAST 4Q 0 76 0 76 0 3 LAST 4Q 0 4,904 0 154 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 63K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 69 69 58.9K 3 LAST 4Q 0 3 LAST 4Q I2L4 BCDMOS 75K 66 58K 45.5K 45.3K 45.2K 40.1K 40K 35.9K Device-Hours* WAF EFR PPM FITS 0 38,400 142 0 168 0 0 38,500 117 0 203 76 0 0 38,000 117 0 206 0 154 0 154 382,000 161 0 15 80 0 80 0 80 80,000 236 0 49 0 0 69 69 0 0 69 69 0 0 69 69 69,000 69,000 236 236 0 0 56 56 800 0 0 0 0 0 0 38,400 44 0 548 0 79 0 79 0 79 0 79 79,000 236 0 49 3 LAST 4Q 0 77 0 77 0 77 0 77 77,000 117 0 102 3 LAST 4Q 0 154 0 77 0 77 0 77 157,696 142 0 41 3 LAST 4Q 0 77 0 77 0 77 0 77 77,000 117 0 102 3 LAST 4Q 0 77 0 77 0 77 0 77 77,000 117 0 102 3 LAST 4Q 0 77 0 77 0 77 0 77 77,000 117 0 102 3 LAST 4Q 0 300 0 80 0 80 0 80 90,560 236 0 43 RELIABILITY MONITOR 3 High Temperature Operating Life (sorted by TECHNOLOGY) 48 Hours REJ SS 168 Hours REJ SS 500 Hours REJ SS 1K Hours REJ SS TECH QTR 35.4K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 160 1,337 0 0 160 317 0 0 160 317 0 0 ATMEL 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 229 8,984 0 0 229 1,317 0 0 229 1,317 0 0 Device-Hours* WAF EFR PPM FITS 160 317 160,000 365,960 236 198 0 0 24 13 229 1,164 229,000 1,685,516 236 168 0 0 17 3 RELIABILITY MONITOR 4 Data Retention Bake (sorted by FAMILY) 168 Hours REJ SS 500 Hours REJ SS 1K Hours REJ SS BU QTR Device-Hours AF FITS MEMORY 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 80 0 80 80,000 117 98 MCU 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 397 877 0 0 397 877 0 0 397 877 397,000 877,000 117 117 20 9 ATMEL 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 397 957 0 0 397 957 0 0 397 957 397,000 957,000 117 117 20 8 RELIABILITY MONITOR 5 Data Retention Bake (sorted by TECHNOLOGY) 168 Hours REJ SS 500 Hours REJ SS 1K Hours REJ SS TECH QTR 66K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 80 160 0 0 80 160 0 0 80 160 80,000 160,000 117 117 98 49 63K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 77 157 0 0 77 157 0 0 77 157 77,000 157,000 117 117 102 50 58K 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 80 0 80 80,000 117 98 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 80 0 80 80,000 117 98 35.4K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 160 400 0 0 160 400 0 0 160 400 160,000 400,000 117 117 49 20 35K 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 80,000 80,000 117 117 98 98 ATMEL 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 397 957 0 0 397 957 0 0 397 957 397,000 957,000 117 117 20 8 35.9K RELIABILITY MONITOR Device-Hours AF FITS 6 Temperature Cycle 100 Cycles REJ SS 200 Cycles REJ SS 500 Cycles REJ SS 1K Cycles REJ SS PACKAGE QTR CASON 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 80 0 80 0 80 0.00% 3 LAST 4Q 0 159 0 159 0 159 0 159 0.00% PDIP 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0.00% 0.00% SOIC 3 LAST 4Q 0 159 0 159 0 159 0 159 0.00% TQFP 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 240 240 0 0 240 240 0 0 240 240 0 0 240 240 0.00% 0.00% ATMEL 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 320 718 0 0 320 718 0 0 320 718 0 0 320 718 0.00% 0.00% MLF / QFN RELIABILITY MONITOR % Defective 7 Temperature Humidity Bias / HAST Temperature Humidity Bias HAST 168 Hours 500 Hours 1K Hours 100 Hours Device-Hours* % Defective REJ SS REJ SS REJ SS REJ SS PACKAGE QTR CASON 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 80 160,000 0.00% 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 312 624,000 0.00% 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 160 320,000 0.00% 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 240 240 480,000 480,000 0.00% 0.00% 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 240 1,177 480,000 2,354,000 0.00% 0.00% MLF / QFN SOIC TQFP ATMEL RELIABILITY MONITOR 8 Steam Pressure Pot 96 Hours REJ SS 168 Hours REJ SS 240 Hours REJ SS PACKAGE QTR CASON 3 LAST 4Q 0 80 0 80 0 80 0.0% 3 LAST 4Q 0 160 0 160 0 160 0.0% PDIP 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0.0% 0.0% SOIC 3 LAST 4Q 0 160 0 160 0 160 0.0% TQFP 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0 0 80 80 0.0% 0.0% ATMEL 3 LAST 4Q 0 0 160 560 0 0 160 560 0 0 160 560 0.00% 0.00% MLF / QFN RELIABILITY MONITOR % Defective 9 Failure Rate Calculations Failure Rate: χ2 λ = where, λ χ2 α n AF DH = = = = = = (1 − α 100 , 2⋅n + 2 ) ⋅ 109 2 ⋅ AF ⋅ DH Failure Rate (FITS) Failure Estimate Confidence Level (60% or 90%) Number of Failures Overall Acceleration Factor (TAF x VAF) Device Hours Thermal Acceleration: TAF where, TAF EA k T f s P θJA = = = = = = = = = e ea 1 1 ⋅ − k Tf + ( Pf ⋅θ JAf ) Ts + ( Ps ⋅θ JAs ) Thermal Acceleration Factor Activation Energy (eV) Boltzman’s Constant (8.617 x 10-5 eV/°K) Temperature (°K) Field Conditions Stress Conditions Power Dissipation (W) Thermal Resistance Coefficient -

Stressing at high temperatures (150°C for plastic packages) accelerates any discharge causing the memory state to change. Failures In Time (FITS): This is the unit measure for expressing failure rates and is identical to the expression PPM/K hours. For example, three failures out of a million components tested for one thousand hours equates to 3 FITS. High Temperature Operating Life (HTOL): The purpose of this test is to accelerate thermally activated failure mechanisms through the use of high temperatures (typically between 125°C and 150°C), increased voltage, and dynamic bias conditions. Readouts at various time points are taken to determine the Early Failure Rate (EFR) and Intrinsic Failure Rate (IFR). EFR is expressed in defective parts per million (DPPM) and IFR is expressed in Failures in Time (FITS at 55°C). Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST): The purpose of this test is to evaluate a plastic packaged component’s ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions with extreme temperature and humidity levels. The parts are stressed to high temperature (130°C) and relative humidity (85%RH) conditions in a biased state to achieve maximum acceleration. Steam Pressure Pot (SPP): The test is used to evaluate a plastic packaged component’s ability to withstand severe conditions of pressure (15 psig), temperature (121°C), and humidity (100%RH). Temperature Cycle (TC): This test is used to measure a product’s sensitivity to thermal stresses due to differences in expansion and contraction characteristics of the die and mold compound by repeated alternating temperature dwells between high and low temperature extremes. Temperature Humidity Bias (THB): The purpose of this test (85°C/85%RH) is identical to HAST. The only difference is that HAST accelerates THB by a factor of 20:1 due to the increase in temperature during test. RELIABILITY MONITOR 11
