SIGNAL-INTEGRITY ISSUES ON THE RISE

摘要

Electronics design trends that ratchet up design complexity and speed, such as the use of multiple high-speed buses, bring new signal-integrity challenges. With that in mind, EDN assembled a virtual panel of engineers working in signal integrity to examine the current impairments, assess how well the available test equipment is measuring up, and determine what we can do both short- and long-term to improve signal integrity. Admittedly, there are many things that can affect signal integrity (Reference 1); in this discussion, we focus primarily on crosstalk and EMI.
