Abstract :
The need for a comprehensively nearly-life reliability monitor of electronic components is pointed out by the authors. Operational life testing was used to produce an early-life performance evaluation by exposing large samples of devices to simulated conditions of actual field use at the component manufacturing location. This testing produces failure time which are analyzed and associated with a simplified Weibull model of component early-life reliability
