Prognostics of Electronics under Vibration Using Acceleration Sensors

چکیده
This paper discusses a prognostics methodology for assessing the remaining life of a group of electronic components mounted on a circuit board using a single accelerometer to monitor the life-cycle vibration loads. The accelerometer captures the global circuit board response to enable all components on the circuit board to be analyzed. A case study is presented using a single accelerometer mounted on an electronic circuit board that is subject to random vibration. The acceleration data is converted into local circuit board strain near the various components through modal analysis, and further converted into component solder joint stress by finite element analysis for the final damage assessment. The paper then compares the failure prognostic results to experimentally measured component lives through real time daisy-chain resistance measurements.

Prognostics implementation of electronics under vibration loading
In this paper, a methodology is developed for monitoring, recording, and analyzing the life-cycle vibration loads for remaining-life prognostics of electronics. The responses of printed circuit boards to vibration loading in terms of bending curvature are monitored using strain gauges. An analytical model calibrated by finite element analysis is developed to calculate the strain at interconnect...
متن کاملFiber Bragg Grating-Based Vibration Sensing for Machine Prognostics
We report results from a fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based scheme for vibration sensing in combustion engines. The vibration sensing is carried out using a commercial high speed spectrometer. We compare the performance of the FBG sensor with commercial PZT-based sensors and find that the FBGs perform as well.
