What is an RGA Examination? Residual Gas Analysis (RGA) for
Integrated Circuits (ICs) is the identification of gaseous
components that can be extracted from a microelectronic package
cavity. MIL-STD-883D, Method 1018.2, Internal Water Vapor
Content exists for the purpose of identifying a standard
procedure to be used, but a detailed understanding of the
technique with effects which may be encountered will help the
analyst reach a correct conclusion. These effects may include
those not specifically treated in a standard or reactions which
occur below stated failure thresholds. Three analysis methods
are described in MIL-STD-883D, Method 1018.2. Mass spectrometry
is the most common method for general RGA and moisture analy
