Patent attributes
A printed circuit board (PCB) includes a plurality of layers disposed at different depths of the PCB, circuit components disposed at different layers of the PCB, and a plurality of temperature measurement sensors located at one or more layers of the PCB, where each temperature measurement sensor is associated with a corresponding circuit component. A measured temperature is obtained at an embedded temperature measurement sensor located at an embedded layer within the PCB, and the measured temperature is correlated with an electrical property of an embedded circuit component located at the same embedded layer within the PCB as the embedded temperature measurement sensor. A plurality of moisture measurement sensors can also be located at one or more layers of the PCB to facilitate a measured moisture with an electrical property of an embedded circuit component.
