    Description

    Utilizing a simulation-based reliability physics analysis early in the design phase allows engineers to better understand how reliability changes with duty cycle. Reliability physics analysis makes possible the rapid identification and mitigation of certain failure risks with an overall goal of ensuring product safety, meeting warranty targets, and reducing physical test times. In this session, learn how Ansys SIwave, Ansys Icepak, Ansys Mechanical and Ansys Sherlock can be used as a comprehensive multi-physics solution to optimize PCB reliability. For the current ongoing plans with Autodesk, Jim Delap (Director of Product Management at Ansys) said, "Ansys is pleased to work with Autodesk to introduce their PCB users to the world of simulation using our Electronics Database (EDB) and ODB++ formats. With this collaboration, layout data can easily be transferred to electrical, thermal, and mechanical simulation environments within the Ansys ecosystem".
