Abstract
The theoretical reliability of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) has been compared to actual failure rates, and used to demonstrate the improved accuracy of the parts stress over the simpler parts count approach. The methodology is then extended to demonstrate an expected reliability improvement of Active Stator drives versus equivalent voltage source drives.
