摘要
In today's world, apart from thefact that systems and products are becoming increasingly complex, electronic technology is rapidly progressing in both miniaturization and higher complexity. Consequently, these facts are accompanied with new failures modes. Standard reliability tools cope to tackle all of the new emerging challenges. New technology and designs require adapted approaches to ensure that the products cost-effectively and timely, meet desired reliability goals. The Physics-of-Failure (P-o-F) represents one approach to reliability assessment based on modeling and simulation that relies on understanding the physical processes contributing to the appearance of the critical failures. This paper outlines the classical approaches to reliability engineering and discusses advantages of the Physics-of-Failure approach. It also stresses that the P-o-F approach should be probabilistic in order to include inevitable variations of variables involved in processes contributing to the occurrence of failures in the analysis.
