Derating your PCB components to the maximum manufacturer rating isn’t necessarily the most effective way to ensure reliability. In fact, it could be counter-productive.

This Best Practices in Thermal Derating webinar delves into the hows and whys of derating, and explores the many factors that impact reliability outcomes like:

• Thermal stresses

• Excessive derating

• Consistent derating parameters over component life

• Steady state temperature assumptions

• Different thermal profiles over an entire PCB 

Plus, you’ll learn how Sherlock Automated Design Analysis™ software solves these dilemmas and more!
