  1. Failure Mode: Incorrect state

BOUNDARY SCAN INTERCONNECT>> Unit unable to download the program                      

 

 

 

  1.  

                  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BAD

 

GOOD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. How was it determined that this device was failing?

After Pass download, reboot failed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  NA                                          

3. What was the last step before failure was discovered?

 

 

 

 

4. Was the device being used in a new application or have application conditions recently changed:     Yes              No?

Please describe in detail:

 

No

 

 

Unable to merged unit to system module.

5. Is there any side effect to the product?

 

6. Has the failure mode occurred previously?      Yes              No

Please describe in detail:

Yes, just replace so called bad component rev F to rev H and fix the problem

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7. was the failure intermittent?                           Yes              No

Please describe in detail:

 No intermittent failure.

 

 

8. Replacing so-called Bad comp/part to a new comp/part fix the problem. Please describe in detail:                                      Yes              No

 

Yes, by replacing component to a new component will fix the issue.

 

9. replacing so-called Bad comp/part to a pass board/projector/radio fix the problem.                                                         Yes             No

Please elaborate:

Pass become failed = programming failed

 

10.Placing back the so-called Bad comp/part on the same unit. What was the outcome                                                        Yes              No

Yes, placing back the bad component to the same unit and it was consistent failed

Please elaborate:

 

 

 

 

 

 

11. Placing back the good (new) comp/part on the pass unit. What was the outcome?                                              Yes                No

Yes, placing back the good component to the pass unit consistent Pass

Please elaborate:

 

12. If use the fail units on a different model which is using the comp/part fix the problem?                                                       Yes              No

Please elaborate:

Not use to the other model

 

13. Additional information and comments.  Please use this space for additional information and comments that could help the failure analyst provide you with a timely and accurate determination of the cause of the failure.  Please also attach circuit diagrams, sketches and further data as necessary in order to best show the problem.

 

For further analysis, we had performed x-ray to the component, and no abnormalities was found during the x-ray. Solder looks good with GND pad 70% covered by solder. No solder shorts or insufficient solder on each pin. Notice that only rev F will causing the programming failed. All unit with rev H able to complete the programming.

 

Table is a simulation done to the unit

Replace to U6

Results

Unit A

Rev H

rev H

Pass

Unit B

Rev H

Rev F

Failed

Unit C

Rev F

rev H

Pass

Unit D

Rev F

Rev F

Failed

 

With this we suspect that U6 rev F is the root cause to the failure. By replacing this component, unit was able to Pass board level test & module level test.
