The future of design is here, and artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a powerful ally in the world of signal integrity. AI isn’t just about doing more with less; it’s about doing things ...

Understanding signal integrity basics is critical for engineers striving to create high-performance electronic systems. With a foundation in signal integrity basics, engineers can move forward in ...

In Part 1, we explored the basic characteristics governing high-speed SerDes channels. This article focuses on real-world issues, such as parasitics and impedance mismatches, that require additional ...

Races, missed next-state values due to long paths, and metastability can result from corrupted clock signals. This post describes the challenges of clock network and clock jitter analysis in more ...

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 ...

The Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a popular feature of cell phones, MP3 players and other electronic products. USB makes data transfer between electronic devices faster and easier, especially for ...

As a signal travels across a network, it focuses only on what it sees in its path. And increases in data rates over the past few decades have made this path a bit more clouded. System infrastructure ...

Signal integrity is a critical design consideration in modern electronic systems, particularly those that depend on high-speed interconnects. As data rates climb and interconnect geometries become ...
