Notes about MCM's we tested


  • Grade = A means no problems were found
  • Grade = B means some problems were found, but we will accept the MCM
  • Grade = C means one block of 32 channels does not work
  • Grade = D means two blocks of 32 channels do not work
  • Grade = F means more than two blocks of 32 channels do not work or else the MCM does not work at all

  •  

    We accept grades A and B.

    summary (evaluation lot):

  • total grade A's = 4
  • total grade B's = 2
  • total grade C's = 3
  • total grade D's = 2
  • total grade F's = 7

  •  
     

    We accept grades A and B.
    fraction accepted = 6/18 = 0.33 +- .11.
    Two MCMs (which originally were judged "good") have failed tests after being attached to Si assemblies, handled, having surface mount components added and changed, ... If we include these in the MCM yield as "good",
    8/18 = 0.44 +- .12 were originally "good".
