It’s easy to output a file from PADS Layout for use during manufacturing by the pick and place machines. Customers…
Well, of course you do – most engineers are pretty good people. Actually, as much as I’d like to brag…
Impedance is an important concept in many different realms of engineering. We often see it in our everyday life, especially…
In my previous blog, I talked about how a printed circuit board is nothing more than a path for signals…
What? Isn’t that backwards? Technically, yes. The board is merely a pathway through which ICs talk to each other, and…
For over 50 years, designers have been calculating current-carrying capacity on PCBs using charts created by the Navy in 1956…
Simulation is a way of predicting reality. The more information we put into the simulation, the better our prediction of…
When trying to design SERDES signals on board, designers often receive recommendations on placing stitching vias around differential signal vias…
This tip comes from Bill Tkachuk in CSD. Do you want to do pin swapping in a PADS Logic/PADS Layout…
