Abstract: A set of parameter drifts is recorded over a period of time for each of a series of stress tests on a system at various stress levels. Each set of the recorded parameter drifts is plotted as parameter drift versus time. The plots are then time shifted in relation to a reference plot to form a single parameter drift plot. A non-linear equation is fitted to the single parameter drift plot and then used to predict parameter drift over the life of the system. The non-linear equation may be modified by adding a stress acceleration factor to allow prediction of parameter drift over time at different stress levels.
