Display Assembly Yield at 68% target display yield rate: a worked example

This worked example runs the display assembly yield numbers for a tougher week than the baseline: 68% target display yield rate instead of the typical 95%. Estimate display assembly yield for payment terminal and retail hardware using production-ready inputs so teams can track KPI performance and decide whether corrective action is needed.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Display assemblies rejected: 8 count (held at the documented default)
  • Display assemblies built: 250 count (held at the documented default)
  • Target display yield rate: 68 % (the input this scenario stresses; the baseline uses 95)

Working through the calculation

  • The calculation starts from the formula this tool documents: Display assembly yield rate = display assembly yield count ÷ total display assembly yield population × 100.
  • Display assembly yield rate works out to 3.2 % at these inputs, and this is the headline figure for the scenario.
  • Display assembly yield gap to target works out to 64.8 points at these inputs.
  • Display assembly yield count works out to 8 count at these inputs.
  • Total display assembly yield population works out to 250 count at these inputs.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where target display yield rate sits at 95% and the headline result is 3.2 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 3.2 %.
  • Use it for a quick station-level yield or reject-rate read during a shift, or to check whether a display line is on target after a process change. A result at this level usually justifies acting on the stressed input before touching anything else, because every other figure in the table is downstream of it.

Results at a glance

  • Display assembly yield rate: 3.2 % (headline result)
  • Display assembly yield gap to target: 64.8 points
  • Display assembly yield count: 8 count
  • Total display assembly yield population: 250 count

Run it with your numbers

  • To rerun this with your own numbers, open the live Display Assembly Yield calculator, set target display yield rate to your actual value, and adjust the remaining inputs to match your operation.
