if I have a board and the weakest link is a fan, can I assume that the mtbf for the board would be the fans mtbf?
Is there a company out there that if I give them my BOM they will do the MTBF calculations for me without charging major bucks?
There might be companies that are willing to separate you from your money and give you a theoretical or hypothetical MTBF number, but unless there's actual ground-truthing and testing under load in the assembly, you don't have anything that's necessarily meaningful. What you need is a person who is expert in reliability analysis.There are companies, (probabilistic software) that offer this service. Cost is 2500. per board. Too much monies, need someone else, know of any?
