#176 – TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY ACCELERATED LIFE TESTING – FRED SCHENKELBERG

Featured

ABC FredHigh temperature & humidity is a common test condition. For specific failure mechanisms there are models available (or you can create a model) to determine the translation from test to use conditions.

These acceleration models generally only apply to one specific failure mechanisms and do not apply to a system level estimate of life. If the failure mechanism is the dominate failure mechanism for the product, then an ALT exploring just that mechanisms would provide a life estimate. Continue reading
