The expected number of parts per million that have measurements less than the lower specification limit is calculated as follows:
PPM < LSL = 1,000,000 * F(LSL)
Term | Description |
---|---|
F(X) | The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the distribution used in the analysis based on estimated or specified parameters |
PPM | Parts per million |
LSL | Lower specification limit |
The expected number of parts per million that have measurements greater than the upper specification limit is calculated as follows:
PPM > USL = 1,000,000 * (1 – F(USL))
Term | Description |
---|---|
F(X) | The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of the distribution used in the analysis based on estimated or specified parameters |
PPM | Parts per million |
USL | Upper specification limit |
The expected number of parts per million that are outside of the specification limits is calculated as follows:
PPM Total (Exp. Overall) = PPM < LSL (Exp. Overall) + PPM > USL(Exp. Overall)
PPM Total (Exp. Overall) = [1,000,000 * F(LSL)]+ [1,000,000 * (1 – F(USL))]
