Review of Health Prognostics and Condition Monitoring of Electronic Components

Abstract

To meet the specifications of low cost, highly reliable electronic devices, fault diagnosis techniques play an essential role. It is vital to find flaws at an early stage in design, components, material, or manufacturing during the initial phase. This review paper attempts to summarize past development and recent advances in the areas about green manufacturing, maintenance, remaining useful life (RUL) prediction, and like. The current state of the art in reliability research for electronic components, mainly includes failure mechanisms, condition monitoring, and residual lifetime evaluation is explored. A critical analysis of reliability studies to identify their relative merits and usefulness of the outcome of these studies' visa -vis green manufacturing is presented. The wide array of statistical, empirical, and intelligent tools and techniques used in the literature are then identified and mapped. Finally, the findings are summarized, and the central research gap is highlighted. INDEX TERMS Reliability methods, condition monitoring, faults and failures, prognostics, diagnostics.

A Review on IGBT Module Failure Modes and Lifetime Testing

“…This may affects module's reliability and may cause early failures. In field, IGBT modules are subjected to a multitude of stresses [1,[17][18][19][20]. IGBT modules may fail due to random system overstress events such as overvoltage and overcurrent.…”

“…The second part of the paper provides a detailed discussion on IGBT modules' failures, accelerated lifetime testing, lifetime modes, and degradation characterization associated to electro-thermal stresses. Since a significant portion of IGBT modules' field failures are attributed to extensive electro-thermal stresses due to temperature cycling [1,[17][18][19][20]. The paper is organized as follows.…”

Condition-Based Maintenance of HVAC on a High-Speed Train for Fault Detection

“…This task consists of the scheduled refurbishment or replacemen its components; • Condition monitoring is a continuous task that allows users to detect t of the system by monitoring some contextual parameter that could in radation and wear-out of the monitored item. Condition monitoring cate that the failure mode can be expected to occur if no corrective [37,38]; The maintenance policy choice depends on two conditions: if the failure is evident or not, and if the failure will involve consequences for the safety level of the system under test. However, at least four possible task options are given in each orange box; this means the international standard gives the designer a high level of subjectivity.…”

“…This task consists of the scheduled refurbishment or replacement of an item or its components; • Condition monitoring is a continuous task that allows users to detect the health state of the system by monitoring some contextual parameter that could indicate the degradation and wear-out of the monitored item. Condition monitoring is able to indicate that the failure mode can be expected to occur if no corrective action is taken [37,38];…”

Multiple Elastic Networks With Time Delays for Early Fault Detection and Prognostics

“…With the further requirement of the system safety of energy storage power stations, not only do we hope to be able to detect and isolate faults when the status deteriorates, but also require that we can provide early fault detection and prognostics before the system deteriorates, to ensure that there is enough time to take measures to prevent deterioration and avoid unnecessary losses [1][2][3][4]. Early fault detection and prognostics is an area where fault detection and event prediction technology are combined.…”
