Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Visible cracks or fractures on the casing

Increased ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance)

Bulging or leaking of the capacitor

Deterioration in insulation resistance

Question 2: What is the most likely cause of failure if a circuit board shows excessive heat and burnt components during failure analysis?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Incorrect component ratings

Environmental factors

Overcurrent conditions

Soldering defects

Question 3: What technique is used to identify latent defects in solder joints of a PCB?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Question 4: What is the primary goal of including accelerated life testing in a product validation test plan for an electrical device?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

To measure the overall efficiency of the electrical components during initial usage

To evaluate the power consumption of the device under stress conditions

To test the device's regulatory compliance under extreme conditions

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Include specific references to the test conditions and their possible impact

Provide a summary of all past test failures

Only document the failure rate

Omit the details of the failure for clarity
