GERMANIUM PHOTODIODE RELIABILITY ANALYSIS

2024-12-05
Germanium photodiodes (PIN's and APD's) produced by Teledyne Judson Technologies have demonstrated excellent reliability in life testing programs. This is shown by the fact that no failures have occurred in almost 8000 hours of accelerated testing. The determination of median life is shown to exceed 3000 years and random failure rate is much less than 1 FIT at 25°C. (1 FIT means one failure in 1E9 device-hours.) Since no actual failure distribution nor activation energy for Ge photodiodes have ever been reported in the literature, we use the well-accepted Bellcore Report as a guide to proceed with our reliability analysis. Listed below are pertinent information and a description of the methods and calculations used to determine the median life and random failure rates for Teledyne Judson's Ge photodiodes.
