Q1. Steps to generate Thermal effect on the board

To display thermal effect on the board, follow the steps shown below.

1. First step is to compile the *.DAT to *.Tal files using Library compiler.
2. Now select Library viewer from Main menu Library and load required *.TAL files. Note: Once you set these files, these files automatically gets loaded whenever the database is opened.
3. Set the colors using the tool “Setup colors for display of temperatures” which is helpful in displaying a colored board. Each color represents a range of temperatures.
4. Now click “Execute Thermal analysis” tool. This displays the Isotherms indicating the thermal effect on the board. The various temperature on the board may be labeled using the tool Set/ delete isotherm temperature label.
5. To display the temperature distribution on the board, select colored board from the drop down of View. The message box “Temp” on the parameter window shows the temperature at the point where the cursor is positioned.

Q2. Steps to generate Electromagnetic field intensity on the board.

To display field effect on the board, follow the steps shown below.

1. Select Electrical net parameters function tool which pops up a dialog box. Add the nets after assigning the voltage and frequency values.
2. Set the colors using the tool “Setup colors for display of temperatures”. This tool allows to map a set of colors to a set of fields intensity in order that after analysis the electromagnetic field intensity may be visually displayed on the screen.
3. Now click “Execute Electromagnetic analysis” tool. This displays the Isolines indicating the field intensity on the board. The fields intensity on the board may be labeled using the tool Set/ delete isolines field label.
4. To display the field intensity on the board, select colored board from the drop down of View. The message box “Field” on the parameter window shows the field at the point where the cursor is positioned.
