Result
The following temperature non-thermal life stress relationship is used:
- [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!L\left ( f,T \right )=Af^{B}e^{\left ( \frac{E_{a}}{kT} \right )} }[/math]
where [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!f }[/math] is the switching rate, [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!T }[/math] is temperature. [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!L\left ( f,T \right ) }[/math] is the life characteristic affected by the two stresses. This relationship is called temperature non-thermal model in ALTA.
This relationship also can be expressed as the following:
- [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!ln\left ( L\left ( x_{1},x_{2} \right ) \right )=\alpha _{0}+\alpha _{1}x_{1}+\alpha _{2}x_{2} }[/math]
where [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!x_{1}=\frac{1}{T} }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!x_{2}=ln\left ( f \right ) }[/math] . This is the General log-linear model with the proper stress transformation in ALTA.
The failure time distribution is a Weibull distribution. The book has the following results:
- The maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) results for the parameters are: [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\alpha _{0}=0.671 }[/math] , [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\alpha _{1}=4640.1 }[/math] , [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\alpha _{2}=-0.445 }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\beta =1.805 }[/math].
- The eta parameter in the Weibull distribution at temperature of 30°C (303.15 K) and switching rate of 5 cycles/minute is estimated as [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!4.244\times 10^{6} }[/math].
- The estimated reliability at 200,000 cycles and temperature of 30°C (303.15 K) and switching rate of 5 cycles/minute is 0.996. Its one-sided lower 90% confidence bound is 0.992.
- The two-sided 90% confidence interval for parameter [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\alpha _{2} }[/math] is [-0.751, -0.160].
