METHOD FOR CHARACTERISING THE SENSITIVITY OF AN ELECTRONIC COMPONENT TO ENERGETIC INTERACTIONS

摘要

The invention relates to a method for characterising operating conditions for an electronic component permitting the sensitivity thereof to energetic interactions to be limited. The behaviour of a component subjected to a pulsed laser radiation is measured. The values of polarisation frequency and temperature (or other operating conditions) to which the component is sensitive are determined by detecting a transitory or permanent fault in the operation of the component. If necessary, the parasite currents generated are prevented from destroying the tested component at the moment of testing. A susceptibility of the component to energetic interactions and the preferred operating conditions for the component are deduced.
