Demonstration of XFdtd's Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) testing features

Learn how to use XF's features for ESD testing as we walk through the process of analyzing a multi-layer PCB and identifying potential locations of dielectric breakdown.

Using a simplified ESD probe to excite the PCB with ESD waveforms, we demonstrate the following features:

• User-defined ESD waveforms
• Dielectric strength material property
• Dielectric breakdown near field sensor
• Max component voltages and currents dialog
• Dielectric breakdown ratio
