Pletronics FQA Factory Quality Audit – The primary goal of factory audit testing is to validate all units have been produced and tested to meet critical requirements. –Test conditions are identical to the specification of the Datasheet Including, voltages, temperatures, frequency, power, rise time, fall time and loading

Pletronics Reliability Audit Reliability Audit –Reliability audits are conducted to validate that a process and product maintains the required level of quality and reliability throughout the life of the product –The reliability environments are a subset of those used for product qualification Test Name Characterization Thermal specifications HTOL Pre/post HTOL Characterization Temperature Cycle High Temperature Storage Die Shear Resistance to Soldering Heat Physical Dimensions External Visual Solderability Low Temperature Storage Leak Test Lead Integrity Bond Stength
