As data rates soar into the multi-gigabit range, high-speed digital (HSD) PCB design is no longer just about connecting the ...

In this product-how to, ANSYS’ Steve Pytel explains how to use the ANSYS SIwave-DC simulation tool to predict DC power loss and voltage drop for a PCB. As supply voltages continue to decrease and ...

How can PCB designers gain useful IR-drop insights quickly from overloaded power integrity (PI) engineers so they can meet stringent time-to-market targets? In this article, we’ll discuss technology ...

GaN power transistors on standard PCB Gallium nitride power transistor maker GaN Systems has issued an application note showing how to use its novel GaNPX packaging on FR4 PCBs. GaNPX is a package in ...

Mentor Graphics has made its move into 3D design for PCBs with a tool which brings the power of 3D visualisation into classic PCB place and route design.

This week’s round-up spotlights a GaN audio evaluation kit, low on-resistance power FETs, how to uncover the secrets behind PCB design, smart MOSFET gate drivers, and more.

The first power-up revealed a problem with the 3.3V output. We’ve often thought it is harder to troubleshoot a new design than it is to repair something that is known to have worked at one time.
