            Abstract : 
Many factors (device design, material choice, application conditions, etc.) are determining the reliability of LED light sources. By carefully studying all the key component degradation behavior, and with the thorough knowledge of the LED design, a reliability model can be built here-upon, addressing both the lumen maintenance performances and the probability of catastrophic failures.
