Company Profile:
National Semiconductor Corporation designs, develops, manufactures, and markets analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits and sub-systems.
Surveillance or inspection by a customer's quality representative or by a government inspector at the vendor's facility of material being assembled or screened by that vendor.
Industry:Semiconductors
Helium nuclei emitted as a result of the radioactive decay of trace amounts of naturally occurring uranium and thorium found in semiconductor packaging materials. Alpha particles, if not properly controlled, can cause soft errors in dynamic memories.
Industry:Semiconductors
Per MIL-STD-100, a drawing prepared for the purpose of defining and controlling screening, electrical performance characteristics, and physical configuration of purchased material. By definition, the intent of a Source Control Drawing is to purchase controlled standard parts.
Industry:Semiconductors
A microcircuit in which the output is a mathematical function of the input.
Industry:Semiconductors
A method of producing thin films by freeing molecules from a solid source through ionic bombardment in order to deposit them on a nearby surface.
Industry:Semiconductors
A unit of length. 104Å = 1 micron or 1010Å = 1 m (meter).
Industry:Semiconductors
SSI devices are those that contain less than 12 gate equivalents.
Industry:Semiconductors
The maximum acceptable reject percentage on the average for all outgoing lots.
Industry:Semiconductors
Placement of devices in a chamber at elevated temperature (normally 150°C) without electrical bias in order to test the construction of the devices. Sometimes this is performed prior to seal in order to bake out impurities on the die surface. Stabilization bake differs from high temperature storage only in that it is typically of shorter duration.
Industry:Semiconductors
The maximum percent defective that can be considered acceptable as an average for all lots screened. The sample size used with a given AQL will prevent acceptance of 95% of all lots having a greater percent defective.
