The workshop demonstrates how to perform thermal aware solder fatigue analysis using Ansys Sherlock™ electronics reliability prediction software and Ansys Icepak® electronics cooling simulation software in a co-simulation workflow. You will learn to simulate thermal cycling, export temperature maps from Ansys Icepak software, and assess solder joint reliability using Sherlock’s fatigue prediction tools.

Learning Outcomes:

Following completion of this workshop, you will be able to:

    • Set up solder fatigue analysis in Ansys Sherlock software.
    • Configure thermal simulations in Ansys Icepak software.
    • Export and import temperature map files (.tmap) between Ansys Icepak and Ansys Sherlock software.
    • Perform fatigue analysis using realistic thermal profiles.
    • Interpret results: time to failure, cycle to failure, and life prediction.
    • Compare reliability outcomes with and without detailed temperature mapping.

Please note: These training materials were developed and tested in the 2025R1 release.
