#159756 - NEVER use 'nominal'/'typical'
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Have you an idea of nominal time
yours truly and a highly qualified engineer once spent a full month hunting a "once a day problem" in a $750.000 unit (about 2000 TTL chips). We finally found the source and confronting the designer, he stated "the design is within the typical times". So to get the units going we had to set up a test jig that sorted the chips to use only those for which MAX was less than 'typical'. Had the designer done the right thing and designed so things would work at both max and min the problem would never have occurred.
