Hello Everyone, If anyone is interested I will teach an on-line course "Noise Coupling and Power Integrity" at UCLA (University of California Los Angeles) Extension in this spring semester (April 3 - June 19). The new self-paced online/remote format allows U.S. and International participants from any country and continent to register and take the course remotely without the need to travel to United States and Los Angeles. For registration info please visit the UCLA Ext. web site: https://www.uclaextension.edu/r/Course.aspx?reg=V6182 For instructor's biography and experience please visit NoiseCoupling.com web site: http://www.noisecoupling.com Course Description from UCLA Ext. Catalog: For working engineers and professionals. Build a strong understanding of the physical principles that describe the noise coupling and power integrity in integrated circuits. Topics include power distribution impedance in chip/package/PCB co-design, loop inductance, effective decoupling techniques, power distribution impedance variation with frequency and resonance peaks, noise generation in the substrate and power distribution network, noise propagation in various types of substrates and fabrication technologies, noise reception in sensitive circuits, noise coupling suppression techniques, and noise coupling modeling and simulation. Instruction balances qualitative and quantitative analysis methods with practical intuitive techniques for understanding physical phenomena. You are exposed to various practical examples and are guided to complete a design project in which you develop the power distribution network and simulate the noise coupling effects in a mixed-signal integrated circuit. Simulations in course assignments and a final design project are performed using ChipQuake, a Windows-based noise coupling and power integrity simulation software tool. (April 3 - June 19, 12 meetings total) Best Regards, Course Instructor Cosmin Iorga, Ph.D. Founder and President, NoiseCoupling.com ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List technical documents are available at: http://www.si-list.net List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
