PCB design guidelines are created as benchmarks for circuit design engineers to meet the industry standards. Following these guidelines will ensure better manufacturability and robust product ...

Although PCBs are the basic foundational block for all electronic circuits in today’s generation, it is essential to follow several rules and guidelines while designing the circuits. These rules are ...

Today’s electronic devices market demands miniaturized printed circuit boards (PCBs) with a multitude of high-speed functions integrated on a single board. This causes the designers to have traces ...

Mentor, a Siemens business, is into a wide range of software, from real-time operating systems (RTOSs) to chip-design tools. Also in the mix is printed-circuit-board (PCB) design software. Quite a bit ...

In today’s electronics industry, compact, efficient, and versatile PCBs are in high demand. Rigid-flex technology allows engineers to design boards that bend and flex without compromising performance ...

Hardware designers are feeling the pressure from designs with continually accelerating memory or SERDES protocol links, while facing shrinking margins and unrelenting cost constraints. I believe we ...

We seem to want our PCB design software to do everything these days, and it almost delivers. You can not only lay it all out, check electrical and design rules, and even spit out a bill of materials, ...
