This might be a little off-topic but does anyone out there in TechNet Land know if there is an IPC standard for reliability predictions, similar to Mil 217 or Telcordia? 

The process seems straightforward, grossly simplified you take a sum of the expected number of failures for all components on the BOM and take the inverse for MTBF. Haven't done enough research to determine the difference between the various standards used, it's a spare time project (whenever I get any).

Thanks,

Blair
