The
Derating Analysis software module is used to analyze the overstress
of components under current temperature conditions. The module provides a tool to
define Derating curves and identify
overstressed components, i.e.,
those working under stress exceeding the specified rating value. Rating, or maximum
rated stress, is the specified value of temperature, power, voltage or current that
define the absolute maximum stress limits. Exceeding these values creates a high
probability of part damage/failure.
Derating parameter definition
The maximum rating is specified in the part specifications or in standard for this
type of part. It is a well known practice in many companies to define limit values
of stress for various components as a function of temperature. These limits, "Derating
curves", are part of the company policy of component usage. A report created
by the Derating Anaysis module includes all components in the selected part of the
system, or only the overstressed ones. Derating reports with indication of overstressed
parts.
