Signal Integrity
PCB
Description Module

Learn when and how to apply signal integrity techniques to high-speed interfaces. This comprehensive course combines design techniques and methodology with relevant background concepts of high-speed bus and clock design, including transmission line termination, loading, and jitter. You will work with IBIS models and complete simulations. Other topics include managing PCB effects and on-chip termination. This course balances lecture modules with instructor demonstrations and practical hands-on labs.


Module 1:
  • SI Basic terminology
  • Introduction of Hyper lynx
  • Basic of Simulation model (IBIS )
  • Layout translation method
  • SI basic Data setup (Library, stack up, Pin Assignment, Power supply setup)
  • Investigate stack-up strategies
  • Pre and post Simulation method
  • Line sim and Board sim simulation
  • SI and Crosstalk issues
  • Termination strategies
  • Module 2:
  • LineSim free-form schematic creation, editing stack-up, assignment of models and component values.
  • Compare theoretical values with simulation results.
  • Manual and automatic waveform measurements of overshoot, flight-time and crosstalk.
  • Evaluating the effects of different impedance matching strategies, topologies, technologies, and stack-ups in LineSim Sweeping design parameters.
  • Create and debug IBIS models.
  • Perform Batch Mode Quick Analysis in BoardSim and review the report.
