NOTE: Maven has requested in depth review support from GSFC on this topic. Our point of contact is Seke Gordo (code 542). This review is ongoing and still has some open items.
Evaluation Approach• Experience has shown that the largest components offer the greatest risk
• Ceramic substrates are quite stiff as compared to flexible circuit boards• Most likely failure mode is (KOVAR) fatigue of corner leads on large components • Fatigue strains are dictated by the accumulated flexures of the PCB.
• Steinberg’s methods predict max. board deflection for infinite fatigue life• He’s fitted his accumulated PCB test data to provide useable empirical relations• These results may also be applied to yield & finite fatigue life predictions
• Infinite life is appropriate for many terrestrial applications, while the typical NASA launch vibration (& testing) exposure is very brief.
• PCB (four sided) edge support naming conventions• Pinned – edges constrained in translation, but not in rotation• Fixed – edges constrained in both translation and rotation
Working Reference• Steinberg “Vibration Analysis for Electronic Equipment” 3rd Ed. J.Wiley, 2000
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
Summary of Evaluation Relations (after Steinberg)• First Mode of a given PCB design (fixed edges):
• Fn = (2p/3) (D/r)½ [3/A4 + 2/A2B2 + 3/B4]½ • D = Eh3 / [12 (1-m2)] • r = W/g / [AB]
• A & B – PCB dimensions • h – PCB thickness • W - weight
• Max PCB deflection for Infinite Fatigue Life:• Z∞ = 0.00022 B / [C h r √L] • C – component factor (table) • r - position factor (table)
• L – component length
• Maximum PCB test deflection of a given PCB design:• Z3s = 36.8 √P / Fn
5/4 • P - ASD test level (G2/Hz) near Fn
• Accumulated fatigue damage using “Miner's Rule”:• Rn = (Fn ST) [0.683/N1s + 0.271/N2s + 0.043/N3s ] • Nns = [Z∞/Zns]b x 1E7 cycles
• ST – accumulated exposure time
• Yield Strength Fraction:• Fy = (Se / Sy)(Z3s / Z∞) • Se - endurance strength • Sy – yield strength
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
OBSERVATIONS• GSFC-STD-7000 (GEVS) and NASA-STD-5001 pose two design constraints
• 1.6 min. safety factor on metallic yield in vibration from GEVS table 2.2-3• 4X exposure time calculations to account for scatter in typical life data
• Designing for “Infinite Life” is an admirable goal, but overly restrictive• Accepting modest fatigue damage (perhaps < 25%) poses minor risks• Plot below illustrates design reserves for retesting & programmatic unknowns
• 1.6 min. GEVS yield safety factor → 62% of yield (red line)• Finite life only in the box level PFM test• Subsequent tests are at lower levels

Original PCB Evaluation Results
COMMENTS* The DCB board has a daughter card and many other features that make a proper (FEM)
evaluation questionable. Having the EM board previously shown, the plan of action was to measure this board frequency, and make adjustments to obtain a first mode of > 200 Hz
• These evaluations assume good workmanship practices in building these PCBs.
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
PFDPU Box Evaluation
• Steinberg calls for an octave (2X) separation between boards and box• Charts below show potential board – box resonant interactions (using Miles Eq’n)
• Lead fatigue is governed by board displacements shown in the right chart.
• The 2X criterion reduces box-board mode interactions to quite modest levels

PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
PFDPU FEM Modeling Discussion• Box Modes (only) are the desired results in this effort
• Software can provide up to 25 modes starting from the lowest value• Using actual PCB physical properties will only yield a plethora of board modes• PCB modulus (E) was increased 20X to avoid the box modes (i.e. very stiff boards)
• Higher order box modes were frame flexing or (Al) end panel diaphragm flexing
• A subsequent test run with the actual E(pcb) did not provide any box modes• This did provide a useful result where PCBs clustered around 176 Hz vs. 185 Hz• The 5% decrease in Fn is from the “less than rigid” nature of the stacked frames
• This is a conservative result because stiff boards contribute to the modal mass• Actual ‘floppy’ boards will contribute less to the modal mass at these frequencies
• PCB modes can be increased to ≈300 Hz before interactions are a concern
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
Part 2:Review of, and Modifications to
STEINBERG’S APPROACH
Issues to be considered:• EM – DCB board test results• Validation of PCB frequency predicts• PCB mode shape vs. fatigue amplitude discussion• PCB material damping
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
EM-DCB BOARD TEST (¼ G sine sweep)• The partial daughterboard & many connectors defy proper analysis
TEST RESULTS• Fn = 211 Hz (185 Hz Steinberg predict for a nominal – single board)• Qmax = 46 (measured near the board center) • Qcg = 4/ p 2 Qmax
• A measured Q at some arbitrary point is not meaningful, Qcg is needed
• Qcg = 18.6 (14.5 predict using Steinberg’s QSt = √Fn)

VIABILITY OF PCB FREQUENCY PREDICTS
• NASA-SP-160 (1969) is one of the most complete analytic works available • <available on line by searching ntrs.nasa.gov>
• A 5% frequency reduction is needed to reflect the less than rigid stacked frame FEM.
• Minor corrections are needed for the EM – DCB test results• The test board had eight screws, but was not glued into it’s board frame
• DCB test board was FR-4 while FMs will use higher modulus polyimide PCBs• Isola P95 is one example of a higher modulus board material
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
Steinberg on PCB Edge Conditions• PCB mode shape descriptions
• Pinned edge mode shape is a half sine wave: Z(x.y) = [sin(px/a) sin(py/b)]• Fixed edge mode shape is a full sine wave: Z(x,y) = ½ [cos(2px/a) -1] [cos (2py/b) -1]• Local curvature differs by a factor of two at the board center
• In his text, on pages 181-182 , this curvature difference is dismissed as small• Section 8.6 discusses edge wedge clamps (fixed edges)
• His fatigue database presumably includes these types of PCBs
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
Steinberg on PCB Edge Conditions (con’t)• Pinned vs. fixed PCB edge comparisons – an even more conservative approach
• Heavy solid lines are the mode shapes – dashed lines are the local (2nd derivative) curvature• Rust line is the |fixed to pinned edge curvature ratio|• Fatigue amplitudes are defined by curvature between any two chip ends (arbitrary positions)• Red line @ 1.26 is the average of this curvature ratio between 20% & 80% of board dim’s
• Large parts typically aren’t put in board corners (centered can be a smaller issue)
• We introduce a modified (x 1.262 , for x&y) location factor: r’ = 1.60 r(Steinberg)
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
PCB Material Damping Properties• Inherent PCB material damping is proportional to 1/Q test results• Damping is the least understood material property, subject to many factors
• SDOF models assume viscid damping, while data often shows hysteretic trends• Test data often reflects a weak amplitude dependence
• Actual DCB test result was close to Steinberg predict ( Q = √Fn)• Design margin predicts are tolerant of variations in Q (below)

DCB Daughterboard has only a CCGA (ceramic column grid array) Actel• Considered a risk, but not as bad as the BGA (ball grid array)
Maven Thermal Expectations • Actel has provided an extensive thermal cycling test report
• Typically 1000 cycles of +105 to -55C needed for failure• Coffin Manson predicts provided for other environments
• PFDPU Thermal environments are expected to be mild• > 10C variation predicts for Martian orbits
Maven Vibration Expectations • Small (2.5” x 2.7”) pinned edge board• ~ 1100 Hz first mode predict (DB only)• Z3s deflection ~ 0.004” predict• Z∞ deflection ~ 0.006” for infinite life
• DB’s input will be rolled off ~ 12dB from the ~300 Hz first mode of its motherboard.
• ~ 0.007” deflection at DBs center [R] from MBs 300 Hz 1st mode (~ 0.003” under CCGA)
CCGA Contacts Detail
Revised Design Margins• The revised results table below reflect:
• Corrections based on the EM-DCB reduced vibration test data• Scaled DCB PCB frequency predicts
• The 5% frequency reduction to account for the frame stacking• Enhanced location function (r’ = 1.60 r) accounting for larger board curvature
PFDPU Mechanical Evaluation
