Hi,
I've been posting notices about our US events and getting messages saying 
"Thanks, but how about events for Europe?" Well, here are two, one live, one 
web-based.

Enjoy!

1) Live event, Winnersh UK: High Speed Digital Design Symposium

Wednesday 21 January 2009

08:30 - 17:15

ABSTRACT

Join our complimentary symposium and hear from leading technology companies on 
the latest High Speed Digital, Signal Integrity, Serial Bus, FPGA and Memory 
technologies and trends. 

Guest speakers from Agilent Technologies, Xilinx, Elpida, The MathWorks and NXP 
Semiconductors will share with you test challenges, measurement theory and 
innovations on topics such as DDR Memory, High Speed Serial Bus and Jitter 
Analysis, FPGAs, PCI Express(r), Fast Interconnect Analysis and Simulation, 
developing Customised Measurements, Instrument Connectivity and Digital 
Wireless. We'll also spend time discussing emerging market and technology 
trends, and you'll learn about recent breakthroughs in test technology that 
enable designers to tackle their greatest high-speed digital design and 
validation challenges more efficiently and effectively than ever before, 
helping you to get your products to market faster. 

2) Live Webcast: Back to Basics - Measurement-Based Channel Modeling For Signal 
Integrity Using Agilent ADS

Thursday 15 Jan 2009

Begins 14:00 UK time, 15:00 Central Europe 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."
