High-Speed-Pcb

It’s pretty easy to get lost in all the PCIe jargon and, as a non-technical person, figure out what the specs actually mean and what they do. It’s even more important for …

Mini cool Edge (MCIO) connectors are the answer. It’s one of those things that packs a big punch in a small package. Real estate on high speed boards is very precious. …

PCB material is not something you think a lot about when you are doing your low to medium complexity. When you start with high speed material, it’s important to …

Here is the list of priorities of interfaces to route when laying out PCB. Its recommended to start with the high speed and make your way to low speed. This way when you …

This discussion pops up from time to time. Here is the TLDR. For low speed signals, it really doesn’t matter what you use. For high speed 45 angled traces are better than …

When moving up from low speed design to high speed design, I saw engineers trying to length match USB 2.0 within 0.1mm or even closer to zero. Yes, zero skew is the best …

Today, I want to talk about two ICs with the same footprint and the same function, yet they may not work interchangeably. The ICs in this discussion are the hex buffer, …

The first thing you should do after importing the net list to your PCB design tool, is to define the rules. The rules definitions actually start at the schematic design …

First of all when I say high speed, it doesn’t mean high frequency, it means quick signal transition. If the trace is longer than the ¼ distance travelled by the signal …

The question is when is your design a high-speed design? When the trace length is greater than ¼ of TEL, the design is high speed, and care must be taken to maintain …
