Simulation, Analysis and Modeling
Providing
technical, cost and schedule risk reduction
to project managers by utilizing circuit
analysis software to perform simulation,
analysis and modeling of electronic circuits.
Identify
safety issues with electronics designs,
including ordnance firing devices
Evaluate
performance over worst-case conditions
of temperature, tolerance and ageing
Identify
electrically overstressed components and
recommend design solutions
Determine
cause of electronic failures; develop
and validate design solutions
Develop
and validate new electronics designs and
electronic models
The
Electronics Simulation, Analysis and Modeling
(ESAM) team utilizes circuit analysis software
to perform simulation, analysis and modeling
of electronics circuits.Through simulation,
the ESAM team is able to provide technical,
cost and schedule risk reduction to our
customers by modeling and analyzing electronics
circuits for safety, reliability and performance.
They can also identify safety issues with
electronics designs, including those that
involve ordnance firing devices and perform
sneak circuit analysis to identify potential
sneak electrical paths. The ESAM team is
able to improve system reliability by identifying
electrically overstressed components and
recommend design solutions for marginal
designs. When failures occur, they are able
to determine root cause and develop and
validate design solutions. To assess performance,
the ESAM team evaluates circuit operation
over nominal and worst-case conditions of
temperature, tolerance and ageing to identify
design deficiencies and develop design solutions.
They also have the capability of modeling
missile flight control electronics, including
batteries, to evaluate and validate system
performance. In addition, the ESAM team
has extensive experience in developing models
for electronics components and is able to
provide this service to other agencies and
contractors.
