I want to thank all people that give me a feedback about the reliability library. I thought a good point to start is this forum to get a more precise answer to my searching. And I got a clear point to start: read more books in my spare time ;-). I would like to get ideas on reliability testing/Accelerating Life Testing for electronic redundant systems. In order to do reliability testing for an electronic product, what test sequences/topology we should follow ? Are there any standards (MIL, IEC) to follow or guide me?
