19、 temperature and relative humidity1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a test method for estimating the life expectancy (LE) of information stored on rewritable and write-once magneto-optical media. Only the effects of temperature and relative humidity on the media are considered.2 Purpose a

20、nd assumptions2.1 PurposeThe purpose of this International Standard is to establish a methodology for estimating the life expectancy of information stored on magneto-optical discs. This methodology provides a technically and statistically sound procedure for obtaining and evaluating accelerated test

21、 data.2.2 AssumptionsThe validity of the procedure defined by this International Standard relies on five assumptions: the failure mechanisms acting at the usage conditions are the same as those at the accelerated conditions; the linearity of the byte error rate (BER) estimated over the accelerated a

22、nd design conditions is valid; all failure mechanisms have been accounted for and appropriately modelled; failure caused by reversible effects such as surface dust is not included; failure from repairable parts such as external cartridge components is not included.3 Normative referencesThe following

37、5 Measurements5.1 SummaryA sampling of 80 discs is baseline tested for the BER, then divided into five groups according to a specified plan. Each group of discs is subjected to one of five combinations of temperature and relative humidity (stress). During the exposure to the stress condition, discs

38、are periodically removed from the environmental test cell according to a set plan. These discs are then retested for BER and subsequently returned to the test cell for additional increments of exposure at the same stress.For each disc, the time to reach end-of-life (loss of any information or BER 5

39、104), is then determined or estimated. For each stress condition, the resulting service life data are fitted to a lognormal distribution for that stress. These five sets of parameters (lifetime, temperature and relative humidity) are regressed to fit an Eyring acceleration model. This model is then

40、used to estimate the distribution of lifetimes at a standardized set of conditions.5.2 Byte error rate (BER)The objective of measuring the BER is to establish a practical estimation of the systems ability to read previously written bits using a standard drive. This International Standard considers B

41、ER to be a reasonable estimate of the performance of the system. A change in the BER in response to the time at the accelerated temperature and humidity is the principal degradation parameter. ISO 2012 All rights reserved 3BS ISO 18926:2012ISO 18926:2012(E)The true end-of-life for any data storage m

42、edia is any loss of information. Ideally, each specimen is tested until actual failures occur. The first occurrence of any disc degradation that results in uncorrectable errors is considered to signal the actual end-of-life.Realistically, testing until all discs have failed is impractical. For the p

43、urposes of this International Standard, the maximum average BER shall be 5,0 104if actual failures do not occur during testing. This is very system dependent and its use here is an arbitrary level chosen as a conservative prediction of the onset of unacceptable errors and thereby the end of disc lif

44、e. All BER measurements are made with the system error correction switched off.5.3 Test equipment5.3.1 GeneralAny disc drive system that conforms to ISO/IEC standards (see Clause 3) may be used. The tester shall be capable of reporting errors occurring prior to the implementation of error correction

45、 systems.5.3.2 Calibration and repeatabilityA control disc shall be maintained and measured before and after each data collection interval. For each test drive, a control chart shall be maintained for this control disc with plus or minus three sigma action limits. The mean and standard deviation of

46、the control disc shall be established by collecting at least five measurements. If any individual BER reading lies outside the action limits, the problem shall be corrected and all data collected since the last valid control point shall be remeasured.If it becomes necessary to replace the test drive

47、, the new drive shall be calibrated using the control disc and compared to the replaced drive. If a statistical difference exists between the control disc BER means, subtract the new disc mean from the old disc mean and add this correction factor to all subsequent BER measurements made with the new

48、drive.5.4 Test specimenA test specimen is any disc that conforms to ISO/IEC specifications referenced in Clause 3 and contains representative data written over 100 % of the user area. Representative data may be real data or random test data.6 Accelerated stress test plan6.1 GeneralA well manufacture

49、d magneto-optical disc should last several years or even decades. As such, it is not practical to conduct life studies under normal usage conditions. It is then necessary to conduct accelerated aging studies in order to determine the estimated potential for life of this medium. To be successful, these studies shall be planned ahead of time in order to be of sound design both technically and statistically.Many accelerated life test plans follow a rather tradit
