ADS7038-Q1: Regarding Numbers of pins during Reliability Calculation

KARAN BEDI

Part Number: ADS7038-Q1

Tool/software:

I have seen the pin failure mode distribution for the IC from the the attached link (https://www.ti.com/lit/fs/sbaa467/sbaa467.pdf?ts=1736311872398&ref_url=https%253A%252F%252Fwww.ti.com%252Fproduct%252FADS7038-Q1%253FkeyMatch%253DADS7038QRTERQ1%2526tisearch%253Duniversal_search%2526usecase%253DOPN-ALT)

In this Exposed Pad also considered in the pin failure mode analysis. So while performing reliability calculation using IEC 62380 standard whether number of pins should be considered as 16 or 17 (by including Exposed pad)

Hi Karan,

This slipped through my feed, so apologies for the late response. The exposed pad is specifically excluded from the device pin count, per IEC 62380.

Joel

Hi Joel,

Not a problem, thanks for the response.

If I will not include Expose Pad in the pin count for Reliability Calculation, whether still I can include Expose Pad in my failure mode distribution ?

Hi Karan,

Yes, the exposed pad can still be included in the failure mode distribution, in the case that it is tied to ground as recommended.

Joel
