MTBF
From OptiWiki
MTBF stands for Mean Time Between Failures. This is an indicator for the average time a product or service can be used without unscheduled breakdowns.
The MTBF is a theoretical value. With electrical components, the MTBF value usually is a result of a large computation, including factors like:
- how many individual components are involved
- how big are the components
- what type of components are used
- what production process is used
