Early Detection of SI/PI/EMC Issues with a Screening Process for High-Speed PCB Designs

Abstract

As more and more PCB designs approach the threshold for high-speed considerations, a new requirement emerges for SI/PI/EMC simulations and analysis, followed by a sign-off. Running the detailed analysis can be time-consuming and may require exporting the data from the PCB tool to analysis tools. This can create a lot of back-and-forth activity between PCB designers and SI/PI/EMC engineers due to many small and unnoticed routing and placement mistakes that need to be addressed before setting up and running the analysis. It can consume resources and extend the design cycle.

This webinar will cover a new approach by PCB designers or analysis engineers to screen the design for SI/PI/EMC issues within the PCB tool. This approach effectively identifies design issues early in the design process and reduces critical design time. Most high-speed design issues can be quickly identified and corrected within the PCB design tool, saving significant time. Zuken’s CR-8000 Design Force is designed for this approach and will be used to run the screening process for SI/PI/EMC concerns. The design can be easily exported/imported to third-party tools for additional detailed analysis.
