Free webcast tonight: Lee Ritchey on 32Gbps

by

At 10am Pacific Time (19:00 in Copnhagen), Lee Ritchey will be on a 1h free and live webcast titled “PCB Materials, Simulations, and Measurements for 32 Gb/s”. The two other speakers are Heidi Barnes og Keysight (former Agilent) and Alfred Neves of Wild River Technology. The description looks interesting enough that I would recommend this… Read more

Memory Design Course in Stockholm

by

Hermann Ruckerbauer is coming to Stockholm in April (13+14) to help you really understand dynamic memory (DDR1/2/3/4) and how to design for that. And I really mean in all the little quirky details you need to take full advantage of this technology without guesswork. We had a lot of interest for this course in Copenhagen,… Read more

Great Students to Watch

by

We just completed the first signal integrity course at the Danish Technical University (DTU) in a long, long time. Actually the last similar course was more than 5 years ago. I complained loudly about this fact in the danish engineering magazines, and eventually DTU decided to do something about it. I got involved, and the… Read more

Fully Understand DDR Memory

by

Almost all embedded systems include memory. Often in the form of DDR (double data-rate) dynamic RAM (DRAM). This technology is driven by large servers with lots of memory and portable devices with cheap fast low power memory. Two areas with rapid development, driving up the density as Moores law predicted back in 1965. With that… Read more

If you want to participate in one of these courses or if you want an on-site version for 8+ participants, let me know. Update: This was… Read more

Using Cadence SigXplorer for Parallel Termination

by

Some of the EE-Training courses use the Cadence SigXplorer tool, which is a very handy IBIS*) simulator. I have previously written about other similar tools like the simulator-part of Altium and Mentor’s Hyperlynx. It’s not really important what tool you use, it’s more how you use it and what you do with the results. IBIS… Read more

Upcoming Events Early 2014

by

If you are interested in signal integrity, and you should be if you are reading this, you may have noticed that the subject seem to have a slow but ever increasing level of awareness. I think this is really good. One of the indicators is the number of events going on related to signal integrity.… Read more
