Signal integrity analysis of high-speed interconnects
by Anil Pandey, Principal R & D Engineer, Keysight Technologies, and EDAboard.com forum member Signal integrity (SI) addresses two key aspects in high-speed digital designs: signal timing and quality. SI analysis aims to ensure signals reach their destination in good condition. In a system, signals travel through various kinds of interconnections (e.g., from chip to package, package […]
Human body effect on smartphone antenna performance
by Anil Pandey, Principal R & D Engineer, Keysight Technologies, and EDAboard.com forum member Antenna modeling in smartphone devices, using electromagnetic simulation software, has improved significantly by allowing the simulation of the antenna behavior in complex environments surrounding the antenna. Thus, current electromagnetic software allows the simulation of handheld antennas regarding not only the human presence (such […]
Master (Back?) the Basics: What is ESD?
by Anil Pandey, Principal R&D Engineer, Keysight Technologies and EDAboard.com forum member Electrostatic discharge(ESD) is the sudden and momentary electric current that flows between two objects at different electrical potentials caused by direct contact or induced by an electrostatic field. An Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) strike is a constant threat to device reliability and functionality. Many low-voltage core […]
A monopulse tracking system for satellite tracking
by Anil Pandey A tracking system in earth station antenna tracks the motion of the satellite. Especially in the case of Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellites, that appears for the small time window to earth station antenna, it’s necessary to communicate with satellite effectively in that short duration of time and receive or download all necessary data, […]
