Component reliability for electronic systems

More about the book

"The main reason for the premature breakdown of today s electronic products (computers, cars, tools, appliances, etc.) is the failure of the components used to build these products. To help ensure longer-lasting, more technically sound products and systems, a solid understanding of effective ways to minimize the degradation is essential." "This practical book offers you specific guidance on how to design more reliable components and build more reliable electronic systems. You learn how to optimize a virtual component prototype, accurately monitor product reliability during the entire production process, and add the burn-in and selection procedures that are the most appropriate for your applications. Moreover, the book helps you ensure that all components are correctly applied, margins are adequate, wear-out failure modes are prevented during the expected duration of life, and system interfaces cannot lead to failure."--Jacket
