Q
I would like to know the transistor count for a processor to calculate theMTBF.
A
The Transistor Count of a processor could be found in the Reliability REportfor the specific Chip.
MTBF could than be calculated based on the process of the CHIP.
From Reliability Report:
Process Technology: 0.13um CMOS
Product P/N: ADSP-BF532S
e.g.
