“…The reliability of the tantalum capacitor can also be assessed using an experimental approach. In this experimental approach, accelerated life testing technique is used, to analyze the reliability of the components (Catelani et al, 2021;Peddigari et al, 2021). The total 100 numbers of tantalum capacitors are used of same capacity and parametric values (Ahsan Diao et al, 2019).…”

PurposeCapacitors are one of the most common passive components on a circuit board. From a tiny toy to substantial satellite, a capacitor plays an important role. Untimely failure of a capacitor can destruct the entire system. This research paper targets the reliability assessment of tantalum capacitor, to reduce e-waste and enhance its reusable capability.Design/methodology/approachThe residual lifetime of a tantalum capacitor is estimated using the empirical method, i.e. military handbook MILHDBK2017F, and validated using an experimental approach, i.e. accelerated life testing (ALT). The various influencing acceleration factors are explored, and experiments are designed using Taguchi's approach. Empirical methods such as the military handbook is used for assessing the reliability of a tantalum capacitor, for ground and mobile applications.FindingsAfter exploring the lifetime of a tantalum capacitor using empirical and experimental techniques, an error analysis is conducted, which shows the validity of empirical technique, with an accuracy of 95.21%.Originality/valueThe condition monitoring and health prognostics of tantalum capacitors, for ground and mobile applications, are explored using empirical and experimental techniques, which warns the user about its residual lifetime so that the faulty component can be replaced in time.

“…These conditions must be above the nominal service operations in order to bring faults out in shorter time. The result of the test is a dataset containing a set of time-tofailure variables that could be used to implement a probabilistic life data analysis to obtain information regarding reliability, failure rate, probability density function, etc [18]- [20].…”

In many different technological and industrial fields microelectronic device reliability is rising up as a fundamental aspect to consider during the design of diagnostic, optimization and control systems. Unexpected failures in diagnostic and control units could lead to a severe impact on the entire system/plant availability. Thus, reliability analysis must be carried out during the early phase of the design. MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) based Inertial Measurement Units are widespread in diagnostic units to monitor acceleration, position and angular velocity of machinery. However, recent literature lack of a reliability estimation for this kind of devices. Thus, this paper proposes a measurement setup and a customized Accelerated Life Test plan for reliability estimation of a set of Inertial Measurement Units. A temperature-based stress test based on the HTOL (High Temperature Operating Life) protocol have been carried out to age the devices with the aim of obtaining a failure dataset. Results of the test have been used to predict device's reliability.

“…A valid alternative is played by accelerated aging tests [14], [15], which provides a data-driven approach to study the performances of a system and predict its wear-out behavior by a functional and reliability point of view. Accelerated aging tests allow to achieve information about the component reliability based on the results of tests performed subjecting a product to conditions above the nominal service operations [16], [17].…”

The Square Kilometer Array low (SKAlow) is an outstanding project aiming at building the world's largest and most sensitive radio telescope. The Australian Murchison Shire desert has been chosen as location for the low-frequency antennas because of many reasons, such as the atmospheric above the site and the radio quietness due to one of the most remote location worldwide. This location is the optimal choice by a radio astronomy and RF engineering point of views. However, it brings several drawbacks in terms of system availability due to the high temperature conditions that deeply affect the electronics reliability, and the difficulties and the costs associated to maintenance tasks performed in a remote location. Thus, it is fundamental to study the reliability and functional performances of the auxiliary electronic devices in the antennas array using adequate aging tests under temperature stress conditions. The experimental activities carried out in this work allowed to investigate the outbreak of failure mechanisms due to aging and hot temperature conditions in the receiver unit for low-frequency antennas of the SKA project. The experimental results are intended to better determine the strengths and weaknesses of the device under test in order to optimize its installation, its maintenance operations and its functionalities.
