2.3.1.1 Infant Mortality Test During Production

This test is not a flash data retention test, rather, it is performed to screen out infant mortality among devices during production. It is an accepted theory that all devices statistically follow a bathtub curve when it comes to failures. The infant mortality failures would fall into the left hand slope of the bath tub curve. Under this test, all of the MSP430 MCUs are baked for 24 hours or 72 hours (depending on device family).
