Abstract:	Reliability tests are performed for 2 reasons: i. to predict lifetime and ii. to monitor the wafer processes for reliability behaviour. In the prediction of life time large prediction levels can be observed. This large uncertainty is due to different types of errors made during the reliability test and data analysis. All lyrics of errors using the "time to failure" test approach will be discussed and methods are proposed to improve how reliability tests can be improved. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd.
