Burn-in老化测试

Burn-in is a reliability stress test that operates semiconductor devices at elevated temperature, voltage, or load for a defined period, accelerating early-life failures and screening out weak parts. It appears in reliability qualification documents, production test procedures, and quality records for high-reliability applications, where fallout data is used to estimate early field failure rates and to set screen limits for production.

Where this term appears

Burn-in appears in reliability test plans, environmental stress screening procedures, and customer quality agreements. It also occurs in automotive or industrial semiconductor documentation where early-life failure requirements are strict. Translators need to distinguish burn-in from lifecycle aging and endurance testing, and to preserve stress temperature, duration, and bias conditions accurately.

Translation checks

A frequent error is translating burn-in as '烧机' or simply '老化' without retaining the reliability-screen intent; it may sound like routine operating time rather than a defined stress test. Another mistake is confusing burn-in with lifecycle aging or high-temperature operating life testing, which can misstate test conditions, durations, and acceptance criteria in quality documents.

Keep the term aligned across your files

Technical terms need checking against the source, approved product terminology and related specifications. Keep units, parameter conditions and document versions aligned across the file set.

Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
