Siemens SN-29500 Module

Siemens SN-29500 Electronic Reliability Prediction

The Siemens SN 29500 module of ITEM ToolKit is a reliability prediction tool based on the SN 29500 Standard Revision 2013-07 . Siemens SN 29500 standard is used by Siemens AG and the Siemens companies as the basis for reliability predictions.

It provides component failure rates for a list of categories. It also contains the underlying conditions for which the component failure rates apply (reference condition). Reference to such conditions is needed when failure rates are stated or when values from different sources are compared. The basis for the definition of the reference conditions and the conversion models for failure rates depending on the stress conditions is the IEC 61709. The stress models described in this standard are used as a basis for conversion of the failure rate data at reference conditions to the actual operating conditions.

The latest edition of this standard is 2013-07.

Project data may be viewed both via grid view or dialog view simultaneously, allowing predictions to be performed with a minimum of effort. Library management, import and export facilities are also provided. Quality user-configurable reports are produced by the program automatically.

In addition data may simply be dragged and dropped into Microsoft applications such as Word, Excel, Access etc. allowing a wide range of additional customised reports and charts to be produced.

ITEM ToolKit’s Reliability Prediction Modules

ITEM ToolKit contains seven modules for performing reliability prediction (MTBF) analysis. These modules conform to MIL-HDBK-217 F Notice 2, Telcordia (Bellcore) TR-332 and SR-332, IEC 62380 (RDF 2000), IEC 61709, China 299B GJB/z 299B (electronics), Siemens SN-29500 and NSWC 06 (mechanical) and share many common features and capabilities.

Each reliability prediction module is designed to analyse and calculate component, sub system and system failure rates, including Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF), in accordance with the appropriate standard. After the analysis is complete, ITEM ToolKit’s integrated environment comes into its own with powerful conversion facilities for transferring data to other modules of the program. For example, transfer your MIL-217 project data to FMECA or your Telcordia project to RBD. These powerful facilities transfer as much of the available information as possible, saving you valuable time and effort.

ITEM ToolKit’s Multi Document Interface allows several projects or libraries to open at the same time. This valuable feature comes in especially handy when it is necessary to transfer data from one project (or library) to another.

Users can construct hierarchical breakdowns of systems with no restrictions on block numbers or levels of indenture. As new sub blocks and components are added, ITEM ToolKit automatically recalculates all dependent failure rates to take account of new information.

Powerful global editing facilities are available for performing “what if” evaluations. These facilities enable you to experiment with temperature, environmental and stress settings and see how your system performance will vary.
