Don't be caught with your clock frequency down
The output edge rate (rise/fall time) of the devices in a circuit, not
the rate at which the devices are clocked, is the cause of the "high
speed" effect in a printed circuit board.
The electric/magnetic wave generated by rapid rise & fall time devices
are the driving force behind the need to control circuit impedance and
the high-speed effect. A circuit with 1.0 nSec rise time devices is
equally prone to high-speed effects, whether being clocked at 1MHz or
200MHz.
Inevitably, economics will drive the lower speed parts out of the
market. The net effect, ready or not, is that high speed issues are
coming to a CAD station near
you.
Training to get you up to speed
Design rules that have worked in the past will no longer yield
acceptable results. New design rules and parameters must be
established to assure a
functional printed circuit board (PCB). This workshop is a clear,
in-depth study of the concepts and practices needed today by
designers, engineers
and others close to the printed circuit design function to
successfully design and fabricate PCBs using the higher speed ICs of
today and the very high speed devices of tomorrow.
Topics to be covered
A definition of the high speed/transmission line environment.
Why we need to control the impedance of PC board traces.
The effect the PC board's natural inductance and capacitance have on
the circuit and the transmission line.
The fundamentals of wave propagation and signal attenuation.
Correct power distribution and decoupling.
Impedance modeling, impedance equations, impedance/reflection control
techniques.
PC board trace routing & stubs and device loading.
Crosstalk and EMI- Sources and resolution.
PC board layer structuring and material characteristics.
Impedance testing, fabrication concerns and notes to the fabricator.
All Attendees will receive a comprehensive workbook on High Speed
Design which can be utilized as a future
reference when designing High Speed printed circuit boards.
Who Should Attend
Printed circuit designers, engineers, and anyone else needing a clear
understanding of high speed printed circuit design. Others who work
with designers, such as manufacturing engineers involved in the
fabrication of PCBs, will learn the related manufacturing issues of
controlled impedance boards.
About the Instructor
Rick Hartley is a Senior PCB Hardware Engineer at Applied Innovation,
a provider of equipment to the telecommunications and Internet access
industry.
His background is in the design of printed circuits for computers,
aircraft avionics and telecommunications. Rick's first high speed
design was in 1979. He has directed high speed digital and RF circuit
board design for the past 8 years. Rick has an Associate
EE Degree and 33 years of experience in the
electronics industry. He has functioned as a technician
and circuit designer, dedicating the last 23 years to
printed circuit design and development. Rick serves on the IPC-D-275
and PC Card Subcommittees, the IPC Designers Council Executive
Committee, the Designer Certification Committee, is Chairman of the
High Speed Focus Module Committee and is cofounder and past president
of the Greater Ohio Chapter of the IPC Designers Council.
