Slide 10 of 26
Notes:
- This slide shows an instance of the FEA-based warpage analysis.
- We can see how idealizations supported by the APM are used and displayed in the lower left region of the screen.
- The user enters the temperatures of interest (e.g., for the lamination temperatures as here) and clicks the <> button to see the deformations on a local PWB section.
- The program automatically extracts idealized attributes from the APM and creates a finite element job file and submits it to the FEA tool (Ansys in this case) for automated execution.
- The user receives results back in PWB-specific terms that are then checked against allowable values.
