NORTHROP GRUMMAN CORP.

GIDEP Document Number: X1-4212-01
Document Title: ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS SCREENING
Document Type: FAILURE ANALYSIS

Benefit from this document:
Downloaded GIDEP R&M documents have been disseminated to Northrop Grumman AEW/EW Systems R&M Engineers. The documents have proven useful by providing technical background information to Engineers who are establishing Reliability and Maintainability design and test requirements to several new Naval Aircraft upgrade programs. In particular, information on Environmental Stress Screening Duration, Design Checklists for Microcircuits and COTS Parts Selection and Application are applicable to the ongoing design efforts of the Advanced Hawkeye aircraft and the EA-18G Electronic Warfare aircraft . The use of information on the application and failure analysis of COTS parts, lead free solder design considerations and parts derating guidelines are applicable to both the EA-18G and the E-2C Advanced Hawkeye programs. General information on Reliability Growth, Fault Tree analysis, establishing tailored Maintainability Program Guidelines and aircraft age related degradation of circuit breakers are useful in training new employees and in supporting products in the field. Although monetary benefits can not be estimated from use of these GIDEP R&M Documents, the Naval aircraft upgrade programs cited above will be enhanced in general by aiding in the specification, analysis and management of in house and Supplier's Avionic and Vehicle Reliability and Maintainability programs.
