In today’s world of rapidly advancing technology, engineers face mounting pressure to design faster, more reliable, and increasingly compact devices. Imagine you’re handed a project—a high-frequency circuit with components that push the limits of design, like DDR memory modules and HDMI interfaces running at multi-gigahertz speeds. It’s a scenario that demands more than traditional PCB design practices; it requires a structured approach to manage the risks that come with high-speed signals.
This OrCAD X High-Speed Digital Design Guide will help designers understand high-speed digital design problems, such as:
- Impedance discontinuities
- Crosstalk
- Signal Reflections
- Ground bounce
- Power Distribution Noise
- EMI and EMC
This ebook will discuss how these common high-speed design issues can be managed with OrCAD X and how to improve your PCB layouts to mitigate signal integrity and power integrity issues.
