Blocking In Design Of Experiments

Abstract

Real life electronic systems must perform within tight limits even if affected by uncertainties such as temperature and supply variations. Design of Experiments (DoE) plays an important role in improving the quality of a system. The present paper focuses on a robust design method based on one of the main principles governing DoE: blocking. The method is automated with the help of MATLAB and involves the following steps: classify the factors, design the experiment, measure, analyze and optimize the response. The method is illustrated on a low-pass filter. The experiment uses a saturated D-optimal design. The metamodel is obtained considering two noise factors, a blocking factor, a small number of runs and replications.
