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 ...

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 ...

Though often used as synonyms, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) is really the controlling of radiated and conducted Electromagnetic Interference (EMI); and poor EMC is one of the main reasons for ...

The latest revision of Zuken's CR-5000 PCB and packaging design suite includes a number of enhancements, most notably to symmetry in trunk routing and modeling. Revision 9.0 of the CR-5000 suite also ...
