5Environmental Requirements

Design, including materials, shall be consistent with the manufacture of units that meet the following environmental reference points.

The reliability targets in this section are based on the expected field use environment for a server product. The test sequence for new sockets will be developed using the knowledge-based reliability evaluation methodology, which is acceleration factor dependent. A simplified process flow of this methodology can be seen in Figure 5-1.

Figure 5-1. Flow Chart of Knowledge-Based Reliability Evaluation Methodology

Establish the market/ expected use environment for the technology

Freeze stressing requirements and perform additional data turns.

Develop Speculative stress conditions based on historical data, content experts, and literature search.

Perform stressing to validate accelerated stressing assumptions and determine acceleration factors.

A detailed description of this methodology can be found at:

The use condition environment definitions provided in Table 5-1are based on speculative use condition assumptions, and are provided as examples only.
