MTBF reliability predictions
The predicted MTBF for Q35 motherboards at 35ºC and 55ºC are shown in Table 17. The
predictions are based on Telcordia SR-332 Issue 1, Method 1, Case 3 with the following
underlying assumptions:
50% default stress ratio for all modeled components
Application-specific stress ratios applied for electrolytic capacitors when available
Ground benign in a controlled environment
Level II quality grade on all components
Mechanical components are not modeled
No burn-in or pre-testing specified
MTTR specified to be 30 minutes
No component-specific thermal rises or other voltage/current stress applied
Relex 7.7 modeling software
