Combine Theory from Industry Expert Robert Hanson with Hands-On Experience from Cadence
In this free seminar, PCB signal integrity consultant and world-renowned educator in high-speed PCB design and analysis, Robert Hanson, will kick off each of our three days with educational material drawn from his course material. You will move from basic signal integrity (SI) concepts on Day 1 to advanced signal integrity topics on Day 2 to the finer details of power delivery network design and analysis on Day 3. Each day, Cadence will supplement Robert’s educational material with either detailed demonstrations or hands-on workshops to give you the confidence to apply this knowledge in practical situations on the job, immediately.
Who should attend?
- Users of Allegro or equivalent PCB software
- Users of OrCAD or equivalent PCB software
- PCB designers and management
- PCB design teams looking to boost productivity and predictability
What you will learn
Practical education from one of the top signal integrity educators in North America combined with hands-on experience in how to utilize this information in a PCB design and analysis solution:
- Signal integrity terminology
- Fundamentals of transmission lines
- Crosstalk: stack-up optimization and forward/reverse crosstalk
- Source synchronous bus design analysis (DDR3 memory interface)
- Multi-gigabit channel design and analysis (PCI Express)
- DC power analysis
- AC power analysis
