My high school physics teacher once told me, “If by 22 years old you haven’t discovered anything, I can guarantee you will not be a genius, but don’t despair since you can still be very experienced.” I’m in my 40s and I have not achieved either! Gustavo Blando recently presented “DC Block Capacitor Location (Does It Matter)?” at a Samtec geEEk and spEEk webinar. Here he presents a summary of some of his key points.
This article examines the key noise processes involved in measurements of jitter and phase noise, shows how these processes impact test results for various types of test equipment, and provides insight for interpreting these results.
Five Techniques for Fast, Accurate Power Integrity Measurements
Industry dynamics are driving a decrease in rail voltage values and tighter tolerances across a wide range of rails. Making an accurate ripple measurement on a 1 V rail with 2% tolerance, for example, is difficult on all scopes. Discover how to make accurate power integrity measurements.

Didn't get a chance to attend EDI CON Online 2020? This SI/PI Technical Session presented by Benjamin Dannan shows how to model a DDR4 memory channel with an FPGA and demonstrates DDR4 channel and signal integrity analysis for DDR4-3200 speeds. We consider channel characteristics, on-die terminations choices, and equalization controls to optimize our DDR4 signals. The talk includes preliminary analysis that provides channel simulations using Keysight Pathware ADS with the Xilinx Versal FPGA with MICRON memory.
