ALT/HASS is one of industry's more widely accepted means of determining reliability of a product through accelerated reliability testing. The twin main stresses employed during HALT/ HASS are rapid temperature transitions and random vibration. This double dose of extreme exposure will reveal defects most likely to occur in the field, in real life application.
Quickly discovers design and process flaws.
Evaluates and improves design margins.
Reduces development time and cost.
Eliminates design problems before releasing to manufacturing.
Ships a mature product at market introduction.
Uses as a sustaining engineering tool to evaluate the impact of product modifications and cost reductions.
