Therefore, 72% of the returned cards are damaged through some type of misuse. Of the remaining 8%, Octagon is unable to determine the cause of the failure and repairs these cards at no charge if they are under warranty. - Page 5 Multiple component failures: The chance of a random component failure is very rare since the average MTBF of an Octagon card is greater than 11 years. In a 7-year study, Octagon has never found a single case where multiple IC failures were not caused by misuse or accident.
- Page 6 Excessive signal lead lengths: Another source of failure that was identified years ago at Octagon was excessive lead lengths on digital inputs. Long leads act as an antenna to pick up noise. They can also act as unterminated transmission lines. When 5V is switch onto a line, it creates a transient waveform.
