Designing ICs on 0.13-micron and smaller process technologies poses tremendous challenges. The number of silicon failures caused by signal integrity problems is on the rise because existing design ...

Electronics design trends that ratchet updesign complexity and speed, such as theuse of multiple high-speed buses, bring newsignal-integrity challenges. With that inmind, EDN assembled a virtual panel ...

Yesterday, I started to talk about how new technologies find their way over time into EDA tools in my post How Technologies Get into EDA. Let’s look at signal integrity as an example. We used not to ...

Signal integrity is the primary measure of signal quality. Its importance increases with higher signal speed, oscilloscope bandwidth, the need to view small signals, or the need to see small changes ...

In Part 1, we reviewed the importance of simultaneous switching output (SSO) timing and the challenges associated with double data rate (DDR) simulation complexity. DDR memory interfacing has reached ...

Differential pairs in high-speed serial links require tight control of impedance, skew, and coupling to limit reflections, mode conversion, and crosstalk. At multi-gigabit data rates, small deviations ...

Signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) are two distinct but related realms of analysis concerned with proper operation of digital circuits. In signal integrity, the main concern is making sure ...

The architecture of the body is not encoded as a formal blueprint; rather, it's the tightly orchestrated activation and deactivation of genes that coordinate body development. Many of these processes ...
