Improving Productivity With More Efficient LVS Debug
Layout vs. schematic (LVS) verification is an essential and integral part of integrated circuit (IC) verification in a system-on-chip (SOC) design cycle, but with today’s highly dense and hierarchical layouts, increasing circuit complexity, and intricate foundry rules, running LVS can be a … [Read more...]
Discover how SLS can revolutionise your manufacturing process
Perfect for prototypes or end-use manufacturing, selective laser sintering (SLS) is the ultimate 3D printing technology for thermoplastic parts. A testament to their strength, SLS thermoplastic parts are replacing steel in many applications. Made with 3D Systems’ production-grade materials, … [Read more...]
Key Considerations for Deciding Whether or Not to Panelize PCBs
When an electrical engineer orders a board from a fabricator, the fabricator will almost always make the design out of standard-size stock. To make the best use of the material, multiple copies of the design are combined in a process called panelization. The goal of panelizing your design is to … [Read more...]
Design Considerations for a Bidirectional DC/DC Converter
With the wide use of energy storage devices such as batteries and supercapacitors, the current trend is to simplify battery charge and discharge management. A bidirectional DC/DC converter can accomplish this to maintain a healthy battery and extend battery runtime. The bidirectional converter uses … [Read more...]
The Touch Screen Integration Problem
The purpose of this whitepaper is to address a common problem many engineering teams face when creating a new product: that the ubiquitous touchscreen is often overlooked in the initial design phase, in comparison to the application’s core function, resulting in unwarranted costs down the line in … [Read more...]
System-Level Approach Enables the Design of Precision, High Density, Isolated Analog Output Module for Process Control
When designing channel-to-channel isolated analog output modules for process control applications the main trade-off is usually between power dissipation and channel density. As module sizes shrink and channel densities increase, the power dissipation per channel must decrease to accommodate the max … [Read more...]
