Temp, Humidity, Bias (THB) Test Service

The Temp, Humidity, Bias (THB) test is a critical environmental stress testing method used to assess the reliability and performance of electronic components and systems under temperature, humidity, and voltage bias conditions. This test method comprehensively evaluates product tolerance and stability under different stress conditions by simulating extreme environmental scenarios, ensuring their efficiency and reliability across various applications. THB testing finds extensive application in electronic manufacturing, semiconductor design, automotive electronics, and high-reliability sectors.

Basic Principles and Importance of THB Testing

THB testing evaluates the long-term reliability and performance stability of electronic components and systems by exposing them to high temperature, high humidity, and voltage bias conditions. During the testing process, components and systems operate continuously under set temperature and humidity conditions while subjected to voltage bias. Through prolonged stress testing, potential defects and degradation in components and systems under extreme environmental conditions can be detected, ensuring their stability and efficiency in various operational conditions.

Quality assurance for electronic components and systems is crucial with THB testing. Detailed environmental stress testing ensures products meet design specifications and application requirements, preventing performance degradation and failures due to environmental factors. In high-reliability applications such as automotive electronics, aerospace, and medical devices, THB testing provides essential quality assurance, ensuring product stability and performance in harsh environments.

Process of THB Testing

Test Preparation:

● Define testing objectives and requirements, and select appropriate testing equipment and parameters.

● Prepare test samples, ensuring samples are undamaged and clearly labeled for optimal testing results.

Environmental Stress Testing:

● Place samples in a temperature and humidity test chamber to set predetermined temperature and humidity conditions.

● Apply voltage bias to enable samples to operate under high temperature, high humidity, and voltage stress conditions.

Data Acquisition and Monitoring:

● During testing, regularly monitor the performance parameters of samples such as voltage, current, power consumption, and signal characteristics.

● Use specialized testing instruments to record real-time data from samples, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of testing data.

Testing Cycle:

● Based on testing standards and requirements, establish suitable testing cycles typically ranging from several hundred to several thousand hours.
