Course Summary
Sigrity Aurora provides comprehensive signal and power integrity analysis directly within the PCB canvas enabling PCB designers and engineers to consider signal integrity and power integrity throughout their designs. With Sigrity Aurora, you don’t need to be an SI or PI expert to identify common signal integrity and power integrity issues. With this course you will learn how to simulate PCB designs, analyze SI and PI results, and modify the PCB to improve signal quality and the power delivery network.
Sigrity Aurora includes intuitive workflows, minimal setup, and both overlayed and tabular results creating an easy-to-use, unified environment for analysis and design. Sigirty Aurora supports SI and PI analysis through the following workflows:
Virtual Proto
Design Setup
Impedance Analysis
Coupling Analysis
Return Path Analysis
IR Drop Analysis
Crosstalk Analysis
Reflection Analysis
Power Inductance Analysis
Topology Extraction
Interconnect Extraction
The Introduction to Sigrity Aurora Workshop will teach you about common signal integrity and power integrity issues, how to simulate PCB designs using each workflow in Sigrity Aurora, how to identify SI and PI problems, and how to correct these issues during the PCB design process to improve signal and power performance.
