QA & RELIABILITY

Catch failure modes before they become customer problems.

Datasheets show time-zero performance. Field failures happen after cycling. Dynamic TIMs Testing using the Siemens DynTIM Dynamic TIMs Tester surfaces pump-out, wetting issues, and thickness sensitivity before they reach OEM qualification.

THE QA & RELIABILITY PROBLEM

Datasheets show time-zero performance.
Field failures happen after cycling.

QA teams inherit the failures that thermal characterization missed. Without cycling-aware data, qualification limits are guesses — and root-cause analysis starts from scratch.

TIME-ZERO BIAS
Datasheets miss aging
Initial Rth tells you nothing about pump-out, wetting issues, or degradation under thermal cycling.
MISSING BASELINES
No degradation baseline
Without pre-cycling characterization, root-cause analysis on field returns is largely guesswork.
QUAL SURPRISES
Late-stage failures
Failure modes not caught early surface during OEM qualification — costing time, samples, and credibility.
