Abstract :
The tolerance range of electronic components, desirable for reasons of economy, is limited by the fact that some manufactured circuits will fail the specifications if tolerances are too large. The letter describes a new and iteratively efficient algorithm for finding the optimum tolerance set that ensures minimum circuit cost.
