The “Special Report—Test Applications” in our January issue focuses on the software tools as well as logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, BERTs, phase-noise testers, spectrum analyzers, vector network ...

Signal integrity is the primary measure of signal quality. Its importance increases with higher signal speed, oscilloscope bandwidth, the need to view small signals, or the need to see small changes ...

The data connection device under test in Figure 1 is characterized by comparing test signals sent into the link with signals measured at the link output. The differences between these two test signals ...

ANSYS, Inc., (Southpointe, Pennsylvania, USA) has unveiled the version 4.0 release of SIwave software which includes new features for signal-integrity, power-integrity and electromagnetic ...

At one time the boundaries between analog and digital designs were clearly defined. As the complexity and performance levels of systems have increased, maintaining those boundaries has become more ...

The need for high-frequency semiconductor devices is surging, fueled by growing demand for advanced telecommunications, faster sensors, and increasingly autonomous vehicles. The advent of ...

Signal integrity is a critical design consideration in modern electronic systems, particularly those that depend on high-speed interconnects. As data rates climb and interconnect geometries become ...

Experts at the Table: Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss the rapidly changing landscape of design for testability (DFT), focusing on the impact of advancements in fault models, high-speed ...

Interconnect cables play an important role in electronics testing. As high-speed signal communications continue to advance, cabling solutions will need to keep up with high-speed, multiport testing.

The transition to HDMI 2.0 was overwhelmingly driven by the urge to support higher resolution signals, notably 4K HDR 4:4:4 with a 600-megapixel flow rate. HDMI 2.0 is furthermore built to accommodate ...
