Now LIVE: The ultimate memory interface training

by

The best memory interface course is now back LIVE again. We are running two courses face-to-face like back in the pre-COVID days 🙂

One in Stockholm/Kista and one in Munich . Both arranged with R&S to be able to support the training with live demos using state-of-the art equipment.

  • Munich, DE, Nov 21-23, 2022
  • Stockholm, SE, Nov 28-30, 2022

This is where you learn ALL about memory interface design, deep understanding, performance optimization, troubleshooting, and compliance testing.

hermann ruckerbauer, eyeknowhowHermann spent most of his career in memory chip design, board-level design, and with the JEDEC committee. He is a walking encyclopedia of everything related to memory interfaces. In these three days, you will learn to really understand memory interfaces – and how to get the most out of them.

Crosstalk video demonstration for stripline

by

A short video to demonstrate crosstalk and try to explain how that works in the stripline environment. We look at both the near-end and far-end crosstalk and also explain why that depends on the termination used. Direct YouTube link. In a real digital circuit, we will have one of these termination situations: Open/high impedance (typical… Read more

University SI Course – COVID’19 Version

by

Challenged in all ways, we didn’t run the university SI course at DUT in the summer of 2020 like in previous years. Sad, but true. Then something amazing happened. Students started pressing for the course to run somehow. Happy to say we just completed a 14-week, COVID-19 version of the course. Some face-2-face, some over… Read more

Video: Using a Network Analyzer as a TDR

by

See how you can do fast TDR measurements using a network analyzer or VNA in this video. Whenever you are designing boards with specific characteristic impedances, you will want to be able to verify that on your fabricated boards. It’s recommended to put in test traces on each layer, but how do you measure this.… Read more

Video: PDN Measurement with a Network Analyzer

by

See how easily you can do a PDN measurement using a network analyzer or VNA in the video here. Building solid power distribution systems (PDN’s) is maybe the most important learning from the signal integrity training overall. Because it matters. Both for the logic functions, the signal quality (integrity) and for the radiated emissions (EMI).… Read more

Schmartboard breakout prototyping PCB

by

The hunt for the perfect prototyping breakout boards ended at “Schmartboard” this time. At my first job, we had something we called “mini-mount” in the lab. Lots of them. And we used it to build all kinds of prototypes. Basically, it was a footprint for some SMT part on a thin single layer PCB with… Read more

Remember: Memory course in Copenhagen Feb 5+6

by

UPDATE: Confirmed to run! Memory course for DDR-3, DDR-4, and DDR-5 I am happy to announce another memory interface course with Hermann Ruckerbauer in Copenhagen Feb 5. This is where you learn ALL about memory interface design, deep understanding, performance optimization, troubleshooting, and compliance testing. Hermann spent most of his career in memory chip design,… Read more
