I’ve experienced a lot of pain with a recent project and wanted to share some thoughts: I was doing the PCB layout on a time-critical project and needed component footprints and 3D step models. Many ...

This document is an application note of the Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout techniques in operational amplifier precision design. It discusses the PCB effects experienced in high DC precision op ...

AI has become a central element of Cadence Design Systems’ broader ‘Intelligent System Design’ strategy, as NE discovers ...

Moore’s law, applied to data rates, has pushed PCB circuits so fast that the layout becomes part of the circuit. In designs such as DDR3 and PCIe, the fastest memory and high-speed serial performance ...

With the significant reduction in package parasitics provided by the eGaN FET, the package inductance is minimized and is no longer the major parasitic loss contributor. The high frequency loop ...

Semiconductor manufacturers have developed innovative production techniques that enable the integration of multiple components and a dc-dc converter IC die into a single module. Producing such a dc-dc ...

In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...

PCB design is a critical and complex process that involves multiple stages, from conceptualization and schematic creation to layout design and final manufacturing. Credit: adobe.stock.com As ...

Partnership addresses the needs of hardware engineers facing reliable power distribution problems during printed circuit board (PCB) design and layout Electromagnetic (EM) simulation technology ...

Another common mistake is simply reducing the diameter of the through-holes to permit space to reroute the breakout. To maintain manufacturability, I recommend a minimum 6mil finished hole size/8mil ...
