Sigrity Aurora

Length: 1 day

Digital Badge Available

Course Description

In this course, you use the Sigrity^™ Aurora software to develop design rules for high-speed designs. You add the resulting physical and electrical constraints to the design through topology templates. These constraints drive the routing of nets on the printed circuit board. You run preroute and postroute signal simulations to analyze the PCB for reflection, crosstalk, and other high-speed design factors.

Learning Objectives

After completing this course, you will be able to: 

• Create, extract and explore topologies
• Run solution space analysis
• Create an electrical constraint set
• Apply constraints to drive placement and routing
• Analyze nets on the routed board design for signal integrity
