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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Steam Machine RAM upgrade requires a full teardown because DDR5-5600 physics prevent a more accessible memory slot, Valve ...

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 ...

No gadget in this episode, I thought instead I’d write about a book I purchased recently. It is Eric Bogatin’s “Signal and Power Integrity — Simplified” second edition. Like most of you, I’ve got a ...

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 ...

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss signal integrity with Rob Aitken, research fellow at ARM; PV Srinivas, senior director of engineering for the Place & Route Division of Mentor Graphics; ...
