Understand aging, fatigue, electromigration, thermal cycling cracks, insulation breakdown, corrosion or humidity-related degradation patterns as inputs to design feedback. 6. Validation, Calibration & Fixture Quality Assurance Validate fixtures: check alignment, clearance, actuation, contact integrity, wiring, and signal continuity. Perform fixture checkout and verification prior to production test runs (probe hits, wire verification, interlock tests). Maintain calibration schedules for sensors and instrumentation to ensure accuracy over long-term usage. Monitor fixture drift, failure modes, and redundancy in critical paths (spare sensors, fallback mechanisms). Design with safety in mind: include grounding kits, proper shielding, and ensure human safety in presence of HV.
