This work describes a corrective action project to improve circuit hermeticity. The objective was to provide quick feedback on experiments to improve performance in biased humidity environments. Hermeticity was evaluated quickly by using current flow (electrolysis) in water applied directly to the surface of the devices. Weaknesses in device construction were discovered, and effective solutions were evaluated, by using the electrolysis technique.
