BEST PRACTICES IN PCB DESIGN: 5 PILLARS |
|
PCB design encompasses the complete journey of developing a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). It involves seamless cooperation and synergy across various domains, including electrical, mechanical, software, system, testing, and manufacturing.
Best practices are standards or guidelines that are known to produce good outcomes if followed. By implementing the 5 pillars of best practices in PCB design, companies can optimize processes, improve team collaboration, reduce design time, engineering costs and respins, and increase reliability and quality of designs.
Is your company equipped to handle complexities in electronics systems design? Download this e-book and learn how these 5 pillars will continue to guide you towards success.

CAPITAL ESSENTIALS AND STYLING BY CHRISTOFFER ÖSTERBERG
|
|
Capital Essentials is not only a powerful platform for the design and analysis of electrical systems. It also offers advanced styling features that allow engineers to create visually appealing and easily understandable cabling and harness drawings. These styling features are crucial for ensuring that technical information is communicated effectively, facilitating team collaboration and improving overall productivity.

STACKUP DESIGN FOR SIGNAL INTEGRITY SIMULATION |
|
We all want simulators that can model detailed electromagnetic behavior and produce highly accurate results, but what happens if you build something different than what you simulated? While no one does that deliberately, the fact is – it happens all the time because the details of the materials and processes used to build the board aren’t accurately represented in the simulation model.
This webinar will introduce Z-planner, an advanced tool for the design and analysis of PCB stackups, traces, and via designs. We’ll show you how to evaluate PCB tradeoffs and create a detailed board model that ensures that the detailed design simulations you perform reflect the behavior of the board as it will actually be built instead of reflecting the behavior of a board as you wish it could be built.

WHY COMPONENT TEMPERATURE PREDICTION IS IMPORTANT |
|
Accurately predicting component temperature is crucial for several reasons. Historically, it's been linked to reliability, with early studies showing a clear correlation between component temperature and failure rates in the field. |
|
More recently, we've seen that the failure rates of electronic assemblies are influenced by the temperature changes during operational cycles (power-on, power-off) and the rate of these changes, both affected by steady-state temperatures.
Electronic failures often stem from solder joint fatigue at the package-board interconnect. High temperatures can negatively impact performance, especially in computing, where speed is crucial. Sometimes, components need to run at similar temperatures to avoid timing issues, and high temperatures can cause operational problems like latch-up.
Whether your goal is to improve reliability, enhance performance, or prevent operational issues, accurately predicting component temperatures is key. Interested in learning more? |
