Slide 17 of 26
Notes:
- Once the information requirements of the analysis modules are reflected in the APM, the next step is to design and implement the mappings that populate this APM with data coming from the four source files.
- To illustrate this mapping process I will describe how the outline of the board is mapped to the APM.
- The outline information is then used to calculate the total diagonal of the board; a product idealization required by the PWB Warpage Analysis Module.
- This slide is a partial EXPRESS schema showing how the outline information is represented in AP210.
- As you may realize (even with this relatively simple example), locating the required information is not a trivial task and requires a considerable amount of knowledge about the source schemas.
