Course Description
Sigrity™ PowerDC™ and OptimizePI™ provides a coherent methodology for the analysis of power delivery networks in high-speed printed circuit boards (PCBs). Power-delivery network design includes voltage regulator modules, decoupling capacitors, and power/ground planes. In this course, you use the Sigrity Power Integrity Suite software to analyze a stable power distribution system to support high-speed circuit operation.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Set up a board database for analysis
- Perform static IR drop analysis
- Perform an electrical and thermal co-simulation
- Graph the impedance of the power distribution network across a complete frequency bandwidth
- Assign capacitor models to an existing printed circuit board
- Create and edit capacitor models
- Optimize capacitor selection for performance and cost

"The teacher was very clever and smart. He knew how to adapt his courses to our needs and our problems. The small size of the group was also a good thing. A very interesting training with a good scope of the Sigrity software capability. A good team and training support."
