A new vibration and acceleration simulation package for printed circuit board (PCB) systems is said to accurately predict results ordinarily available only through traditional, physical HALT (highly accelerated lifecycle testing). The Mentor Graphics Xpedition product is said to augment mechanical analysis and physical testing by introducing virtual accelerated lifecycle testing much earlier in the design […]
