The Sherlock™ electronics reliability prediction software is a physics-based engineering simulation that provides fast and accurate life predictions for electronic hardware at the component, board and system levels in early design stages. The manuals listed below form the Ansys Sherlock documentation set.
| The Sherlock User's Guide is a detailed guide to the Sherlock application which contains step-by-step tutorials to help you get started and thorough, well-illustrated explanations of Sherlock's features. |
| The Sherlock Parts Build Guide has a vast and growing library of pre-built electronic parts for populating the circuit boards in your Sherlock project. But for those times you must build your own part, the Sherlock Parts Build Guide provides the information and tips to make the job easier. It is organized by part type, thoroughly illustrated, and presented in a step-by-step, user-friendly format. |
| The Sherlock Theory Reference provides an introduction to the issues and failure mechanisms inherent in the design of electronic hardware, a clear explanation of Sherlock’s techniques for analyzing these failure mechanisms, and data that demonstrates that Sherlock’s predictions are accurate and in line with industry best practices. |
| Sherlock Release Notes provides access to the Sherlock release notes. |
