Taped Random Spectra for Reliability Demonstration Testing

Abstract

This study was undertaken to develop an economical test technique for Reliability Demonstration tests in accordance with MIL-STD-781C. This has been accomplished by developing two different methods: Multiplex System - incorporates a reel-to-reel tape recorder that generates the desired synthesized random spectrum on one channel while the other channel incorporates a control programmer; and Microprocessor System - incorporates a desk top computer that is programmed to initiate, monitor and control a Reliability Demonstration test. Included with this system is a 'sound-on-sound' tape cassette recorder to generate the synthesized random spectrum and a printer to record the control signals and monitor data during the test.
