Simul-EMI II: An Application to Simulate Electric and Magnetic Phenomena in PCB Designs

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 6096))

Abstract

In this work, an application to simulate electric and magnetic phenomena during design of printed circuit boards (PCB) is presented. The commercial schematic simulation software currently uses advanced models of components, but not of connections. However, with Simul-EMI II it is possible to get results very close to physical reality of the electronic circuits, in the same environment of schematic simulation. The parasitic effects considered are: connection resistance (traces, solder pads and vias), insulation resistance (prepreg, air, solder mask, etc.), self inductance and capacity (traces, solder pads and vias) and mutual inductances and capacities. For that, several applications of data mining, parametric model extraction and knowledge management have been developed in the MATLABTM environment. Finally, the results of a PCB simulation with PSPICETM before and after Simul-EMI II application, together with the electronics laboratory validation tests, are shown.
