Abstract:
A computing device reads a printed circuit board (PCB) layout file from a storage device. The PCB layout file includes arrangement information of signal lines, power lines, and power through-holes arranged on a PCB. Furthermore, the computing device sets a reference distance between a selected power through-hole and a neighboring signal line, and searches for one or more line segments of one or more signal lines where the a distance between each of the one or more line segment and the selected power through-hole is less than the reference distance.

The present disclosure illustrates a feedforward controlled envelope modulator and a feedforward control circuit thereof. The feedforward controlled envelope modulator comprises a linear amplifier circuit, a switching amplifier, and a feedforward control circuit. The linear amplifier circuit amplifies an input voltage signal, so as to output an output voltage signal to a load node. The switching amplifier receives a comparison signal, and outputs a switching current to the load node according to the comparison signal. The feedforward control circuit comprises a duplicate linear amplifier circuit and a hysteresis comparator. The duplicate linear amplifier circuit amplifies the input voltage signal, so as to output a reference voltage signal, wherein an amplifying gain of the duplicate linear amplifier circuit is identical to an amplifying gain of the linear amplifier circuit. The hysteresis comparator compares the output voltage signal and the reference voltage signal, so as to output the comparison signal.

The central processing device includes a storage module, a control module, and a calculation module. The storage module stores a VI application therein. The control module receives instructions from the input device and selects virtual electronic components of the current overload protection circuit from the data storage device and connection of the selected electronic components. The current overload protection circuit is completed and run in the VI application; electronic components significantly affecting the maximum protection current are labeled. The calculation module calculates normal distribution samples of the current overload protection circuit based on the labeled electronic components. The display shows whether the current overload protection circuit meets a process capability standard.
