Abstract: In modern electronics and in electrical applications design is very important to be able to predict the actual product life or, at least, to be able to provide the end user with a reasonable estimate of such parameter. It is important to be able to define the availability as a key parameter because, although other performance indicators (as the mean time before failures MTBF or mean time to failure MTTF) exist, they are often misused.
