Considerations for dividing analog and digital blocks. Decoupling techniques. Breaking down the board layers. How best to deal with grounding. Similar to building a house, it’s essential to create a ...
Electrical circuits have always been a mystery to me. Those tiny components that look like Chiclets or jewelry beads somehow make a light blink, produce music, and detect motion. So I was happy to ...
QSPICE is an analog and mixed-signal simulator characterized by high simulation speed, accuracy and reliability. It is a new program and can be downloaded here. QSPICE is still in the demonstration ...
Most every device and electronic piece of equipment is outfitted with a printed circuit board (PCB), including smartphones, TVs, appliances, and more. You know the composite. The boards are laminated ...
After the critical circuits, we like to examine the printed-circuit board (PCB) stackup. Like the schematic, board stackup decisions are often made prior to routing and placement, so this is a good ...
