SANWOOD Temperature Forcing System for Semiconductor and Electronic Component Testing

Product Overview

The SANWOOD SMS-810-10S Temperature Forcing System delivers localized hot and cold air for semiconductor characterization, component evaluation and temperature-dependent failure analysis. Engineers can investigate performance changes while samples remain connected to electrical or optical measurement instruments.

Localized Thermal Conditioning

Apply temperature-controlled airflow to a selected component or board area to examine operating margins, compare measurements and reproduce intermittent faults.

Air Temperature and Sample Feedback Control

Select Air Mode or DUT Mode according to the required temperature reference. External Type-T and Type-K thermocouples provide feedback from a defined sample location.

Positioning and Laboratory Integration

Motorized vertical adjustment and pneumatic thermal-head actuation support fixture positioning. LAN and CAN interfaces enable monitoring from a host computer.

Cooling Without External Liquid Cryogens

Operation requires no external liquid nitrogen or liquid carbon dioxide supply.

Relevant International Test Standards

For qualification projects, review the specified test method when selecting the equipment, fixture and temperature monitoring arrangement.

JEDEC JESD22-A104 — Temperature Cycling

Semiconductor reliability evaluation through repeated exposure to specified high and low temperature conditions.

MIL-STD-883-1, Method 1010 — Temperature Cycling

Evaluation of microcircuit resistance to temperature extremes and the effects of alternating exposure.

IEC 60068-2-1:2025 — Cold

Low-temperature testing of components and equipment under specified operating, transportation or storage conditions.

IEC 60068-2-2:2025 — Dry Heat

High-temperature testing of components and equipment, including energized and non-energized specimens.

IEC 60068-2-14:2023 — Change of Temperature

Evaluation of specimen response to specified changes in ambient temperature.

Test Method and Configuration Review

These references guide application review; suitability must be confirmed for the selected test condition and equipment arrangement. Evaluate exposure coverage, specimen temperature tolerances, transition requirements, dwell periods and cycle count before qualification testing.

The approximately 10-second specification describes the delivered air’s temperature transition. Actual sample stabilization depends on thermal mass, operating heat load, airflow and fixture conditions. Validate the measured specimen temperature profile under representative loading against the prescribed test requirements.
