Production Testing Information?
Production Testing Information?
(OP)
I'm looking for any good resources (web pages or books) on the latest ideas about testing electronic products in a production process ie stress screening, burn-in, calculating sample sizes, etc.
Any help on finding this information would be greatly appreciated

RE: Production Testing Information?
I didn't get any of my ideas from a book or web site, so I can't help you there. I do have some of it written down, and in my head, so I would be glad to correspond with you by email, or by telephone if you prefer, at 864-234-6637.

RE: Production Testing Information?
The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) sets performance and interface standards. The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) set standards for interaction between electronic equipment. The UL (Underwriters Laboratory) sets safety standards. The US miltiary sets reliability standards. These groups have vested interest in equipment performance, and have developed outstanding test programs to determine how electrical equipment stacks up. ANSI (American National Standards Institute) is a group of industry groups that examines standards for industry.
Meeting these standards has several advantages:
* You don't need to guess about how good is good.
* Customers will know just how good your equipment is.
* The tests are repeatable.
* If you meet the applicable standards in force at the time of manufacture, it gives you substantial (not perfect) product liability protection.
