Fundamentals of Signal Integrity Analysis
New to Signal Integrity analysis, or just need to brush up on the fundamentals? If so, this white paper is for you. The paper begins by identifying and analyzing critical nets in the design that may need signal integrity analysis. Next, it discusses transmission lines and the problems that arise from the high frequency noise generated by rapid edge-rate signals. Finally, impedance is reviewed and discussed in the context of signal integrity.
