In this article, Donald Telian supplies a reference point for making the task of implementing via impedances, thus removing via impedance discontinuities, less daunting. Read on to find out how he can help.

This article by Donald Telian applies Eric Bogatin’s 0.3/Gbps rule of thumb to identify and prevent signal degradation due to stubs.

This Best DesignCon paper demonstrates what happens when GRVs are too distant for the data rate at hand. Read on. 

What causes crosstalk? When does it become problematic? What can you do to ensure it does not ruin your product design? In this article, Donald Telian answers these questions and more.

In Donald Telian’s book he reveals his steps for successful serial links, called the “7 Steps to Successful Serial Links.” In this article, he discusses his most important steps: (one) minimize discontinuities, and (two) manage loss.  

In this article, Donald Telian shares an excerpt from his new book, “Signal Integrity, In Practice,” exploring how optimizing SES both fixes problems and improves system performance. He posits it’s crucial for hardware and SI engineers to understand how to optimize SES; read on to see why he attributes such importance to it. 

Understanding and minimizing discontinuities is increasingly important as serial links become both shorter and faster. Applying the old edge rate to roundtrip relationship to the modern era, Donald Telian in this article offers a rule-of-thumb to help gauge which interconnect structures, and hence discontinuities, to care about – and to what degree.
