failing per unit time. This varies throughout the life of the equipment and if (lambda) is plotted against time, the characteristic "bathtub" curve is obtained for most electronic equipment (See Figure 1). A B C Time Fig 1. Failure Rate vs. Time This curve has three regions: A Infant mortality. B Useful life. C Wear out In region "A", poor workmanship and substandard components cause failures. This period is usually a few hundred hours and a "burn in" is sometimes
