Migrated-gold resistive shorts in microcircuits

Failures, failure modes and failure mechanisms related to the formation of migrated-gold resistive shorts (MGRS) in gold-metallized microcircuits will be described. Also, three different methods of screening devices for MGRS will be presented and the impact MGRS can have on device reliability will be discussed.
