Abstract
This theoretical paper suggests using available statistical information and the physics of failure mechanisms together with computerized simulation to estimate and predict time-to-failure or failure rates for highly reliable ICs. The statistical data required for long term testing are derived from the physics-of-failure and computer simulation.
