The tool allows for the export of simulated data in the forms of CSV files, spice models, S2P files and picture images. The Film Capacitor Lifetime Analysis calculates the estimated life of film capacitors by considering the user's applied voltage, ambient temperature and relative humidity.
The accuracy of measurement by the proposed VI depends mostly on the accuracy of reference capacitor/ resistor. However, the accuracy of measurement is independent of the error in voltage measurement as the two voltages are measured by the same DAQ card and the value of unknown capacitor is dependent only on their ratio.
The mission profile of the design is introduced in the Ripple Current Calculation Method which predicts the expected lifetime of the capacitor based on the user's operating conditions including ambient temperature, operating voltage, air speed and ripple current at specific frequencies.
Both the approaches essentially use ratio-metric measurement of the voltages across the known and the unknown components. In both the equations, the value of unknown capacitance Cu involves ratio of two differential voltages measured by same data acquisition card.
