Description
Ansys Sherlock stands out as the sole reliability physics-based tool for electronics design that delivers quick and precise life expectancy assessments for electronic components, boards, and systems during the initial design phases. By automating the design analysis process, Ansys Sherlock enables the rapid generation of life predictions, thus eliminating the "test-fail-fix-repeat" cycle that often hampers development. Designers can effectively model the interactions between silicon–metal layers, semiconductor packaging, printed circuit boards (PCBs), and assemblies, allowing for accurate predictions of potential failure risks stemming from thermal, mechanical, and manufacturing stresses, all prior to creating prototypes. Additionally, Sherlock's extensive libraries, which house over 500,000 components, facilitate the seamless transformation of electronic computer-aided design (ECAD) files into computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and finite element analysis (FEA) models. Each of these models is equipped with precise geometries and material properties, ensuring that stress information is accurately conveyed for reliable predictions. This capability not only enhances design efficiency but also significantly reduces the risk of costly errors in the later stages of product development.
Description
BQR’s fiXtress provides a powerful tool for electronic product reliability analysis. Derating analysis can identify components that are over-stressed or over-designed and may need to be changed. Stress-based MTBF predictions provide a realistic estimate for the mean time until product failure after derating analysis. FiXtress is an advanced Design for Reliability suite that can be added to any Electronic Design Automation tool. FiXtress modules are available as standalone modules or in combination with other modules to create a comprehensive DfR solution. Unique thermal analysis that estimates average temperature rise on the cold plate for accurate stress derating.
