When electronics engineers design PCBs, they must follow best practices for trace routing. This helps maintain PCB signal integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI). Crosstalk can occur ...

Differential pairs in high-speed serial links require tight control of impedance, skew, and coupling to limit reflections, mode conversion, and crosstalk. At multi-gigabit data rates, small deviations ...

In this video, I talk about five different design and routing tips for Altium Designer. The first tip is about easy track/trace selection. The second tip is to modify the track width efficiently, both ...

Charles Pfeil is an Engineering Director in the Systems Design Division at Mentor Graphics. My first experience with computerized printed-circuit-board (PCB) design was in 1978 when I acquired two ...
