Derating Audit
Derating rules exist for a reason, but actually applying them across an entire BOM is a manual nightmare. You're checking junction temperature margins, voltage headroom, current limits, and power dissipation for every part against your worst-case operating conditions — and it's the kind of work that only gets done thoroughly on safety-critical designs.
Give Zenode your BOM and your operating envelope — ambient temperature range, altitude, expected duty cycles — and it runs a derating check against datasheet absolute max ratings for every part. Parts that violate standard derating guidelines (MIL-HDBK-217, IPC-9592, or your own rules) get flagged with the specific parameter that's out of margin. Zenode also suggests higher-rated alternates that would pass.
It's the design review check that should happen on every project but usually doesn't.
