Consumer Electronics - Environmental Testing - UV, Solar & Weather Durability
This paper explains how to do proper testing of consumer electronics products, parts, and materials with respect to environmental ageing. Durability tests simulate the end use environments to which consumer electronic products will be exposed, when being used or not, which can result in material degradation, and are extensively used in many industries. The scope includes various kinds of products, e.g. laptops, tablets, smart phones, automotive displays, GPS, watches, and new technologies like OLEDs and wearable electronics.

Atlas 25+ ® PV Durability Testing
This paper discusses the Atlas 25+ ®, a comprehensive, multi-dimensional environmental weatherability test program for photovoltaic modules. The aim of this weathering methodology is to complement the basic or extended versions of the IEC “infant mortality” tests by replicating the weathering stresses representative of long-term outdoor exposure that would be otherwise unattainable without multi-year real-time field testing.
