Overview
Constructing low-noise power distribution systems (PDS) is essential for building reliable high-speed interfaces. In collaboration with Xilinx and Ansoft, signal integrity expert Dr. Howard Johnson presents techniques for clean PDS design. In a case-study involving a dense Virtex-4 PCB with multiple system interfaces, Dr. Johnson first explores the structure and purpose of a PCB power system in the context of a high-speed digital system with solid power and ground planes. Then he presents power system measurement techniques, contrasting what you want to measure with what you can measure. Next, with the assistance of Ansoft, he models the PDS of the boards with SIWave power system simulator. Finally, he correlates the simulation to lab measurements of the board under investigation. In this web seminar you will learn about:
- Fundamentals of power supply noise effects on performance
- Techniques for clean PDS design
- Innovative FPGA technologies for enhanced power integrity
Who should Attend:
- ASIC and FPGA engineers
- System architects
- ngineering or technical managers
Presented by:

Dr. Howard Johnson
One of the foremost authorities on Signal Integrity, with over thirty years of experience in the field, Dr Howard Johnson is the author of "High-Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic", considered to be a must-read for all engineers building a high-speed system.
