Default Self healing component failures


"Paul Hovnanian PITA "

I'm attempting to diagnose some strange electronics behavior. And it seems
to be coming down to this question:

What types of components have failure modes that are temperature
independent
and are self healing over a time period of days?

" Ah - an elephant is just like a snake !!! "

Most intermittent faults behave like you describe if viewed over an
INSUFFICIENT time scale.

Think about it a bit harder.
