Conversely,experienced embedded designers know to mask or tent BGA vias at thedesign and layout level. Even when this step is omitted, adesign-for-manufacture (DFM) check mapped out at the planning ...

Cadence Design Systems has started bringing artificial intelligence (AI) into the fold on its flagship chip design suite to help designers build smaller, faster processors that consume less power and ...

Three independent design processes – chip, package, and PCB – are typically required for the latest electronic products which utilize increasingly complex systems on chip (SoCs) and multiple chips in ...

In this article, we point out some important facts in designing RF application PCB boards. Of course there are many other facts that are not listed below but for the beginners these may be enough for ...

In this course, students will design and build a microprocessor-based embedded system application using a real-time operating system or RT POSIX extensions with Embedded Linux. The course focus is on ...

One of the biggest dreams anyone has is to make a living doing what they love. For all hackers, makers, and DIYers with a passion for embedded systems, it may make sense initially to pursue embedded ...

These GUIs also provide a schematic approach to circuit design. The circuit can be designed by dragging and dropping components from a component list onto the schematic. After this, they can be ...

Antennas are sensitive to their surroundings. Thus, when there’s an antenna on the PCB, the layout for the design should take the requirements of the antenna into account, as this can make a huge ...

If there is one thing in software engineering that is a given, it’s that engineers need continuous education. While graduating college might have made us think that we were “done,” the truth is that ...
