2019 was an amazing year for Reliability Physics, as DfR Solutions became a part of the ANSYS family. The integration has brought substantial resources to both our software and services team.

In 2020, the Sherlock software will be fully integrated into the ANSYS platform, including Workbench, Electronic Desktop, Icepak (Thermal Analysis), SI Wave (Electrical Analysis) and Medini (System Reliability). This integration will allow companies around the world to bring Reliability Physics into all aspects of the electronic design process, including automating reliability optimization at the component, circuit board, box, and system levels.

We are also very excited about the significant capital investment we made in boosting our high power battery testing and characterization capability. When this data is implemented into ANSYS’ Battery Modeler software, it will provide unique insight into the circuit, thermal, safety, and reliability performance of a broad range of lithium-ion battery technology.

The unique combination of the ANSYS software eco-system with a state-of-the-art physical laboratory has already accelerated breakthroughs in simulation physics and usability for all ANSYS customers. Expect even more in 2020!
