Hello Technet,

I am working with a small team introducing an SMT production line.

Currently I am designing a test vehicle for the accelerated reliability
thermocycling for our first process validation.


I have read the SM-785 "Guidelines for Accelerated testing..." and would
like to know if anyone can clarify in the Appendix A, step by step
example, why 32 groups of 8 series capacitors were used instead of just
32 individually monitored capacitors?

Thanks

Jeff
