Lessons Learned – Class S Parts in High Reliability Applications

active, Most Current
Organization: NASA
Publication Date: 16 March 2000
Status: active
Page Count: 7
scope:

Practice:

Use Class S and Grade 1 or equivalent parts in all applications requiring high reliability or long life to yield the lowest possible failure rates. (Long life is defined as a requirement to perform the defined function without sacrifice to the primary mission objectives for a period longer than 3 years. Criticality of a function may require high reliability for any period of time and is not necessarily coupled to long life. However, when high reliability is coupled with long life, increased attention to the best reliability design practices is appropriate.)
