Editor's note: This article addresses the need for designers of printed circuit boards for nextgen ICs to be savvy about package-on-package technology. New ways of working with sub-assembly printed ...

A printed circuit board turns separate parts into a stable system that powers up, talks to peripherals, and survives real ...

Keysight’s Electrical Performance Scan (EP-Scan) is a digital simulation tool for hardware engineers and PCB designers that performs rapid signal integrity analysis. EP-Scan provides diagnostics to ...

PCB Signal integrity & Stackup design. Ever more complex PCB designs require layer stackups to be considered even before you layout the design. As a designer there are now vast choices of base ...

Cadence Design Systems’ Sigrity 2016 technology portfolio can, the company says, improve product creation time with an enhanced PCB design and analysis methodology that is suitable for for ...

The global circulation of water is a little like the distribution of power on the board. There is a source and an endpoint, but it’s a closed system. Tributaries may diverge or converge to provide ...

In high-speed PCB design, late-stage signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) issues can lead to costly redesigns and delays. This white paper explores how in-design analysis helps engineers ...

DesignCon concluded last week in Santa Clara, with vendors having exhibited a variety of design, simulation, test, and measurement tools. A key focus was ensuring signal integrity on high-speed serial ...

Considerations for dividing analog and digital blocks. Decoupling techniques. Breaking down the board layers. How best to deal with grounding. Similar to building a house, it’s essential to create a ...

Signal integrity (SI) is at the forefront of SoC and system designers’ thinking as they plan for upcoming high-speed GDDR6 DRAM and PHY implementations for automotive and advanced driver assistance ...
