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
