3. ABBREVIATIONS, SYMBOLS, AND DEFINITIONS
3.1 Abbreviations, symbols, and definitions
. For the purpose of this standard, the abbreviations, symbols, and definitions
specified in MIL-PRF-19500, MIL-PRF-38535, or MIL-HDBK-505 shall apply. The following definitions shall also apply:
3.1.1 Microelectronic device
. A microcircuit, microcircuit module, or an element of a microcircuit as defined in appendix A
of MIL-PRF-38535. For the purposes of this document, each type of microelectronic device shall be identified by a unique
type, or drawing number.
3.1.2 Mode of failure
. The cause for rejection of any failed device or microcircuit as defined in terms of the specific
electrical or physical requirement which it failed to meet (i.e., no failure analysis is required to identify the mode of failure,
which should be obvious from the rejection criteria of the test method).
3.1.3 Mechanism of failure
. The original defect which initiated the microcircuit or device failure or the physical process by
which the degradation proceeded to the point of failure, identifying quality defects, internal, structural, or electrical weakness
and, where applicable, the nature of externally applied stresses which led to failure.
3.1.4 Absolute maximum ratings
. The values specified for ratings, maximum ratings, or absolute maximum ratings are
based on the "absolute system" and are not to be exceeded under any measurable or known service or conditions. In
testing microelectronic devices, limits may be exceeded in determining device performance or lot quality, provided the test
has been determined to be nondestructive and precautions are taken to limit device breakdown and avoid conditions that
could cause permanent degradation. These ratings are limiting values beyond which the serviceability of any individual
microelectronic integrated circuit may be impaired. It follows that a combination of all the absolute maximum ratings cannot
normally be attained simultaneously. Combinations of certain ratings are permissible only if no single maximum rating is
exceeded under any service condition. Unless otherwise specified, the voltage, current, and power ratings are based on
continuous dc power conditions at free air ambient temperature of 25°C ±3°C. For pulsed or other conditions of operation of
a similar nature, the current, voltage, and power dissipation ratings are a function of time and duty cycle. In order not to
exceed absolute ratings, the equipment designer has the responsibility of determining an average design value, for each
rating, below the absolute value of that rating by a safety factor, so that the absolute values will never be exceeded under
any usual conditions of supply-voltage variations, load variations, or manufacturing variations in the equipment itself.
The values specified for "Testing Ratings" (methods 1005, 1008, 1015, 5004, and 5005) are intended to apply only to
short-term, stress-accelerated storage, burn-in, and life tests and shall not be used as basis for equipment design.

3.1.5 Worst case condition
. Worst case condition(s) consists of the simultaneous application of the most adverse (in
terms of required function of the device) values (within the stated operating ranges) of bias(es), signal input(s), loading and
environment to the device under test. Worst cases for different parameters may be different. If all the applied test
conditions are not established at the most adverse values, the term "partial worst case condition" shall be used to
differentiate and shall be accompanied by identification of the departure from worst case. For example, the lowest values of
supply voltages, signal input levels, and ambient temperature and the highest value of loading may constitute "worst case
conditions" for measurement of the output voltage of a gate. Use of the most adverse values of applied electrical conditions,
at room temperature, would then constitute "partial worst case conditions" and shall be so identified using a postscript "at
room temperature."
3.1.5.1 Accelerated test condition
. Accelerated test conditions are defined as test conditions using one or more applied
stress levels which exceed the maximum rated operating or storage stress levels but are less than or equal to the "Testing
Rating" values.
3.1.6 Static parameters
. Static parameters are defined as dc voltages, dc currents, or ratios of dc voltages or dc
currents, or both.
3.1.7 Dynamic parameters
. Dynamic parameters are defined as those which are rms or time-varying values of voltages
or currents, or ratios of rms or time-varying values of voltages or currents, or both.
3.1.8 Switching parameters
. Switching parameters are defined as those which are associated with the transition of the
output from one level to another or the response to a step input.
3.1.9 Functional tests
. Functional tests are defined as those go, no-go tests which sequentially exercise a function (truth)
table or in which the device is operated as part of an external circuit and total circuit operation is tested.
3.1.10 Acquiring activity
. The acquiring activity is the organizational element of the Government which contracts for
articles, supplies, or services; or it may be a contractor or subcontractor when the organizational element of the Government
has given specific written authorization to such contractor or subcontractor to serve as agent of the acquiring activity. A
contractor or subcontractor serving as agent of the acquiring activity shall not have the authority to grant waivers, deviations,
or exceptions unless specific written authorization to do so has also been given by the Government organization.
3.1.11 Accuracy
. The quality of freedom from error. Accuracy is determined or assured by calibration, or reliance upon
calibrated items.
3.1.12 Calibration
. Comparison of measurement standard or instrument of known accuracy with another standard,
instrument or device to detect, correlate, report or eliminate by adjustment, any variation in the accuracy of the item being
compared. Use of calibrated items provide the basis for value traceability of product technical specifications to national
standard values. Calibration is an activity related to measurement and test equipment performed in accordance with
ANSI/NCSL Z540-1 or equivalent.
