Hi, For those of you in European time zones, I'll be presenting a reprise of our free live webcast "Back to Basics: Measurement-Based Channel Modeling for Signal Integrity using Agilent ADS". It's also a reasonable slot for US East and Central. Date/time: Thursday, January 15th, 2009, 15:00 Central Europe Time, 2PM GMT, 9AM Eastern Standard Time, 8AM Central Standard Time. Abstract: In this webcast, we'll demonstrate a rapid technique for "what if" analysis for signal integrity applications. We first automatically fit an ADS circuit model to measured data, using a Tyco XAUI backplane as an illustrative example. Next, the circuit model is used in a series of "what if" simulations to that show what configuration changes will lead to the required performance. Examples include changes to the loss tangent, the via design, and daughter card/backplane trace impedance matching, and combinations of all three. This technique is a much faster and more thorough approach to explore the design space than "iterating the hardware to success."
