The authors followed this reference design flow for analyzing a PCB virtual prototype used in the consumer electronics industry. The design flow details nearly all aspects of the modeling technique ...

The proliferation of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) directives during the 1990s became the latest in a long series of issues to upset the balance between logical and physical PCB design. As ...

“We had a difficult situation where a battery terminal had to be hand fitted and soldered after re-flow,” he said. “There was a 0201 diode close by [top diagram], with one trace connected to the ...

This paper presents a reference design flow for solving the electrical, thermal and mechanical challenges of a printed circuit board (PCB) using simulation tools from ANSYS. This approach can be ...
