Innovation in Reliability Predictions 26 June, 2007 Sheraton-Tel-Aviv, Israel
Tuesday, June 26 2007, 08:30 - 17:00

Program

Purpose: The seminar will provide guidance in understanding the new reliability prediction models such as: 217+, Fides, IEC and Telcordia for electronic complex systems. The prediction includes passive, active, programmable, mechanical and PCB/assemblies to achieve more accurate and realistic results. The seminar will provide knowledge and new techniques in selecting the correct prediction models for a product and the correct implementation.


General: Most of the companies which develop electronic systems invest in calculating MTBF and document the results in a report. Since there is a gap between the predictions and the field results, the usage of such results are limited only to satisfy a customer need. Investing correctly in reliability predictions will result in adding an engineering aspects in decision making in: dependencies in frequency and operating voltage with field failures, reducing number of "No Failure Found" in return PCB/assemblies, selecting components/technologies, predicting the correct number of spares needed to support the maintenance, identifying the optimal maintenance concept and additional aspects which will raise up in the seminar.


Topics:

  • The need for reliability prediction for new technologies
  • The innovation of reliability prediction at the chip, PCB/assembly and system level
  • Failure rate distribution, exponential or not?
  • Stress derating models
  • Passive and active components failure rate prediction models
  • Programmable components models
  • PCB/assemblies models
  • The effect of temperature, humidity, vibration and shocks
  • Integration to system
