Need feedback on ceramic substrate trace width calculator

I’m currently working on a ceramic substrate trace design calculator (focused on trace width and spacing for power applications), and I’d really appreciate some feedback from people with experience in PCB / DBC / AMB / power module design.

The calculator considers factors like:

  • Current carrying capacity
  • Thermal constraints
  • Substrate material (e.g., Al₂O₃ / AlN)
  • Trace spacing rules for high voltage
I’ve shared the calculator link in the comments below—would really appreciate any feedback!

Before refining it further, I’d love to sanity-check the methodology and results:

  • Do the calculated trace widths look reasonable for given currents?
  • Are the spacing assumptions aligned with what you typically use in high-voltage designs?
  • Any obvious mistakes or missing parameters?
Any feedback—whether detailed or just a quick impression—would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!
