[Description]
Signal Integrity Characterization Techniques addresses the gap between traditional digital and microwave measurement technologies while focusing on a practical and intuitive understanding of signal integrity effects within the data transmission channel. High-speed interconnects such as connectors,
PCBs, cables, IC packages, and backplanes are critical elements of differential channels that must now be optimized using today’s most powerful analysis and characterization tools. Both measurements and simulation must be done on the device under test and must yield data that correlates with each other. Most of this book focuses on real-world applications of signal integrity measurements—from backplane design challenges to advanced error correction techniques to jitter measurement tools. The authors’ approach wisely address many of today’s high-speed technologies, provides excellent insight into its future direction, and will teach the reader valuable lessons pertaining to the signal integrity industry.
