Simulate your schematic and compare the results of all the rectifier type and find which filter type is best and why?
Create PCB layouts for each rectifier type considering the requirements from the following specification.
Keep the trace routing as short and as direct as possible. The shorter the routing, the less potential there is of generating EMI.Keep the traces for routing as wide as possible too. The wider the trace, the lower the inductance, which will also help to minimize EMI.Route high-current lines at 45 degrees instead of at right angles. Could you investigate and draft why 45 degree is better than 90 degree?Develop a 3D of your PCB using 3D visualizer.
In your initial design without any filters, replace the THD rectifier diodes with Surface Mount Device (SMD) rectifier diodes in both the schematic capture and PCB layout. Identify the SMD counterpart for 1N4007.Mount SMT rectifier diodes on soldering side and other THD components on component side of pcb.
Construct an FMEA for this product.
Discuss the necessary arrangements for handling this product so it stays safe from ESD.
In a PCB manufacturing industry the excessive heat test is performed to test high temperature capability. Excessive heat can lead to warping in the lengths, widths and thicknesses of different PCB layers and disruption of circuit lines. Excessive heat test is one of the important quality control factor. During testing phase, project team performed the PCB capability study. In Analyse phase collected 20 sets of PCB temperature samples with a subgroup size of 4.
In a small PCB manufacturing plant, the total time available is 500 mins. per day and the total quantity of PCBs manufactured, as per costumers demand are 800 units. The total operator cycle time (Step #1 to Step #4) is shown in Table below. How many operators are required to meet the costumers demand?
PUBLIC / CYHOEDDUSTable – Operator cycle time for each step of manufacturing(5 Marks)
For the Lean assembly, total operation time is 16 mins, and the customer demand for that period is 24 units. We can see that we have an estimated average inventory level of 12 units before the operation and average inventory level of 10 units after the cycle time (C/T). The cycle time is 8s as shown in figure:

Calculate Takt time?Calculate the waiting times before and after the 8s cycle time, shown by ‘?’ in figure?
Value Stream Mapping for Power Supply Manufacturing
Customer Demand: The customer demand for PSX-2000 is 100 units per day.Cycle Time: The cycle time for each process step is as follows:
Raw Material Inventory: 2 hoursComponent Assembly: 1.5 hoursQuality Control and Testing: 0.5 hoursFinal Assembly: 1 hourPackaging: 0.5 hours
Shipping: 0.25 hours
Create a detailed value stream map for the manufacturing process of the PSX- 2000. Use the following symbols for your VSM:

Calculate and document the following key metrics for the current state of the process:Lead Time (from raw materials to finished product)Cycle TimeProcess Time (time spent on value-added activities)Number of Process StepsInventory Levels (WIP)Total Processing TimeFirst Pass Yield (Quality)Downtime (if any)
Identify and label areas of waste within the value stream map. Use the 8 Wastes (TIMWOOD) framework to categorize waste and provide a brief description of each waste you identify.Based on your analysis, propose a future state value stream map that optimizes the manufacturing process, reducing waste and improving efficiency. Highlight the changes made and the expected impact on key metrics.
