Burn-In Testing for Reliability
Elevated-temperature operation accelerates infant mortality, catching weak units before shipment.
What it catches
Early failures, marginal joints and parameter drift surface under stress.
Trade-offs
Burn-in costs time and energy; reserve it for critical programs.
Conditions
Temperature, duration and bias follow the product risk profile.
Key Takeaways
Key Takeaways
- Burn-in flushes infant mortality.
- Reserve it for critical programs.
- Set conditions by risk profile.
