I can remember back in the 1980s how Apollo workstations were quite popular, because they accelerated the graphics display time for EDA tools much better than competitive hardware. Fast forward to 2022 and we have the same promise of speeding up EDA tools like PCB layout editing by using a GPU. At the 58th DAC there was a session called,… Read More

Webinar: Improving SI/PI Simulation of DDR Interfaces at the PCB/IC Package Level

Webinar: Improving SI/PI Simulation of DDR Interfaces at the PCB/IC Package Level
by Admin on 02-20-2020 at 10:53 am

Double data rate (DDR) synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) is the common type of memory used as RAM for almost every modern processor. With DDR memory interface voltages decreasing, speeds increasing, and timing/power budgets being squeezed, design qualification using the latest memory interfaces is no small… Read More

The last session I attended at DesignCon 2020 wasn’t a session at all. Rather it was an interactive discussion with Todd Westerhoff, product manager for electronic board systems at Mentor Graphics. Todd made some observations about the way high-performance PCBs are designed today and perhaps the way they should be designed. … Read More
