Simulation & Modeling
To support ever-increasing functionality, printed circuit boards (PCBs) are employing more complex board structures designed for specific applications. For PCBs in mobile devices, the interconnect and board dimensions are rapidly shrinking as designs rely on a reduced number of highly-integrated modules, each with high pin-counts. At the same time, boards for networking and computer applications are getting larger, with more interconnect and plane layers. This presentation looks at changing board technology for RF/wireless applications and recent capabilities in simulation software that allows designers to isolate and characterize critical traces through complex multi-layer configurations.
