Many complex PCB designs have high data-rate signals like USB, PCIe, DDR and HDMI which call for more thorough verification methods to ensure compliance plus mitigate any signal integrity, power integrity and EMI/EMC issues. Siemens has a methodology that uses automated rule-based electrical verification with an EDA tool,… Read More

Electrical Rule Checking in PCB Tools
I’ve known about DRC (Design Rule Checking) for IC design, and the same approach can also be applied to PCB design. The continuous evolution of electronics has led to increasingly intricate PCB designs that require Electrical Rule Checking (ERC) to ensure that performance goals are met. This complexity poses several challenges… Read More
