In der Elektronikindustrie herrscht heute ein anhaltender Trend zum Low-Power-Design und das wird sich wohl auch in näherer Zukunft kaum ändern. Angetrieben wird er unter anderem von den Anforderungen und Leistung und Speicherdichte von mobilen Geräten, bei denen eine Reduzierung des Stromverbrauchs entscheidend ist, um die Akkulaufzeit zu verlängern, ohne dabei die Bandbreite zu beeinträchtigen. Dieser Guide hilft Ihnen, die Herausforderungen von LPDDR4-Design zu lösen.

In part 1 of this blog we took a back-to-basics approach and discussed line impedance and its effects in signal integrity. As every electrical conductor comprises capacitance, an inductance, and a frequency-dependent ohmic resistance, and with increasing frequencies, these electrical characteristics will influence and distort the signal.

Impedance and impedance control belong to the oldest and most often discussed topics in PCB design. They are especially important with the high-speed design when related to signal integrity. In this, the first of a two-part blog, we’ll go back to the basics of impedance/impedance control and consider what influences line impedance. In part two, we’ll set about controlling it.

Tips for when routing differential pairs - You can tell when something isn’t as clear as it should be. The same questions come up time and again. You ask three experts and get three different answers. Routing differential pairs can be like that. Why? Because “it depends” - on exactly what signals those pairs are carrying and what kind of PCB you’re creating.

Do you still use Post-it Notes? Invented in 1979, this simple, yet incredibly powerful, communication mechanism is still commonly found in engineering and design departments. Despite modern electronic communication, many companies still struggle to provide a replacement for their ease-of-use and versatility.
