What? Isn’t that backwards? Technically, yes. The board is merely a pathway through which ICs talk to each other, and…
For over 50 years, designers have been calculating current-carrying capacity on PCBs using charts created by the Navy in 1956…
Simulation is a way of predicting reality. The more information we put into the simulation, the better our prediction of…
When trying to design SERDES signals on board, designers often receive recommendations on placing stitching vias around differential signal vias…
This tip comes from Bill Tkachuk in CSD. Do you want to do pin swapping in a PADS Logic/PADS Layout…
Everybody knows you are supposed to turn off your phone and other electronic devices when you are on a plane. You…
In the lab, both simultaneous switching noise (SSN) and crosstalk look the same. They appear as unwanted pulses of energy…
Crosstalk is everywhere. Really, in a more general sense, noise coupling is everywhere. Usually the method of noise coupling is…
Here’s another Tip from Yan Killy, Technical Marketing Engineer: It is a common practice to use vias to shielding high…
