1. A method of determining the reliability of a component, the method comprising:
- classifying the component based on an initial determination of a number of fatal defects; and
estimating a probability of latent defects present in the component based on the classification, by integrating yield information based on the initial determination of a number of fatal defects using a statistical defect-clustering model.

Abstract
A system and method for determining the early life reliability of an electronic component, including classifying the electronic component based on an initial determination of a number of fatal defects, and estimating a probability of latent defects present in the electronic component based on that classification with the aim of optimizing test costs and product quality.
