MIL-217 RELIABILITY PREDICTION OF CLOCK OSCILLATORS
MIL-217 RELIABILITY PREDICTION OF CLOCK OSCILLATORS
(OP)
Hello,
Any hints on calculating MTBF of Crystal Clock Oscillators. I am new to Reliability, and using MIL-HNDBK-217, with the Relex software.
Tks!
Felice

I'm puzzled as to the detail involved. Usually, an oscillator is such a tiny part of a board that its actual failure rate is irrelevant. As a general rule, the component count approach to 217 is extremely conservative, and few people do the analysis that way.
