On-Board Decoupling Capacitor Optimization

By Shirin Farrahi and Wenjian Zhang

The goal of power integrity (PI) analysis is to ensure not only sufficient but also stable power to all chips in a system. This article uses the example of a DDR4 application to explain the choices surrounding the use of decoupling capacitors to reduce impedance, and which performance parameters are critical to success.

Available On-Demand: Best Design Practices to Eliminate Ground Bounce in Your Next Product

Didn't get a chance to attend EDI CON Online? This SI/PI Technical Session presented by Eric Bogatin took place on September 12. Eric's session covered a few examples of design features that cause ground bounce, and how to avoid this problem in your next product. Measurements used consisted of measurements of two board designs, one done correctly and one with ground bounce errors to verify our best design practices. After we explore the root cause and how to prevent ground bounce, you should never suffer this problem again.
