Describes the process of improving and developing tools in computer‑aided design system Delta Design. Currently, the modern  process of PCB development is quite complex and time‑consuming process. Existing CAD systems make it easier to design a  printed circuit Board model by providing powerful development tools. Along with the increasing complexity of modern printed  circuit boards, the requirements for development tools are also growing, making them constantly improve. Using the example  of  the  Delta  Design  system,  the  process  of  improving  the  tool  for  moving  track  segments  is  described.  The  analysis  of  the  advantages and disadvantages of the existing tool is made, and the decision on the need to develop a new algorithm is justified.  Of the two proposed variants of such an algorithm, the optimal one was chosen in terms of the quality of the result obtained and  the convenience of operation.

Abstract A time delayed dielectric breakdown in printed circuit boards, operating at temperatures below the epoxy resin insulation thermo-electrical limits, is reported. The safe temperature-voltage operating regime was estimated and related to the glass-rubber transition (To) of printed circuit board dielectric. The TG was measured using DSC and compared with that determined from electrical conductivity of the laminate in the glassy and rubbery state. A failure model was developed and fitted to the experimental data matching a localized thermal degradation of the dielectric and time dependency. The model is based on localized heating of an insulation resistance defect that under certain voltage bias can exceed the TG, thus, initiating thermal degradation of the resin. The model agrees well with the experimental data and indicates that the failure rate and truncation time beyond which the probability of failure becomes insignificant, decreases with increasing glass-rubber transition temperature.

AbstractBased on vector network analyzer Measurements, a model for the specular reflection behavior of printed circuit boards in the Terahertz range has been derived. It has been calibrated to suit the behavior of the measurements using a simulated annealing algorithm. The model has been tailored for integration to ray-tracing-based propagation modeling.

Using Data

Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) are primitives that are designed to leverage naturally occurring variations to produce a random bitstring. Current PUF designs are typically implemented in silicon or utilize variations found in commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. Because of this, existing designs are insufficient for the authentication of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). In this paper, we propose a novel PUF design that leverages board variations in a manufactured PCB to generate unique and stable IDs for each PCB. In particular, a single copper trace is used as a source of randomness for bitstring generation. The trace connects three notch filter structures in series, each of which is designed to reject specific but separate frequencies. The bitstrings generated using data measured from a set of PCBs are analyzed using statistical tests to illustrate that high levels of uniqueness and randomness are achievable.

An automotive junction box distributes electric power to electric systems installed in a vehicle with overcurrent protection. As a larger number of electric systems are installed, the junction box is equipped with more components, functionalities and connections. However, owing to the fuse accessibility, its installation space is so restricted that a downsized design is required for the junction box. The junction box is composed of small signal circuitry for control and monitoring, and large current-carrying circuitry for power distribution which includes many parallel traces. Because of these unique features, widely used techniques for downsizing printed-circuit boards are not applicable. Also, there is no rule for designing large current-carrying parallel traces, and it is difficult to optimize the size of the printed-circuit board for the automotive junction box. This paper presents the design rules for a printed-circuit board when downsizing a junction box. First, the layout strategy for the power distribution components is presented, which is determined by the sum of the squares of the currents flowing through connector pairs. Then, the thermal effects of parallel traces are simulated for different conditions by using thermal analysis software. Based on the results, an analytical estimation of the additional temperature rises due to parallel traces and rules for a thermally effective arrangement of the parallel traces are presented.
