Power Integrity Analyzer
Validate the design decisions throughout the design process including the selection board layer stack-up, placing decoupling capacitors on the board, and routing power/ground nets.
- Power Integrity Analyzer : A tool designed to evaluate and ensure the stability
and efficiency of power distribution within electronic systems. In addition,
when viewing each component in the analyzer (see the image below), the pin
numbers for each component are also visible, aiding in detailed analysis and
troubleshooting.
- PCB PDN Analysis : A process used to evaluate the performance and integrity of
the power delivery system within a circuit, ensuring that sufficient power is
supplied to all components while minimizing noise and voltage fluctuations.
- PCB IR-Drop Analysis: A process to evaluate voltage drops in a PCB’s power
distribution network, ensuring all components receive adequate power.
- View Type
- Voltage(V): Displays the actual voltage levels at different points on the PCB, highlighting areas with significant voltage drops.
- Current Density(mA/mm^2): Shows the distribution of electrical current across the PCB, indicating where high currents may cause voltage drops due to resistance.
- Heat Density(mW/mm^2): Represents the distribution of heat generated by current flow, which can affect voltage drop and overall thermal performance.
- Voltage Drop(mV): Directly visualizes the voltage drop across
different parts of the PCB, highlighting regions where voltage
levels are lower than expected due to resistance.
