                        and certifications does:

                        ▪ Design of HS digital lines

                        ▪ Post layout symulations

                        ▪ Signal integrity measurements

                        ▪ Pre-conformity EMI/EMS measurements

Pre-layout
To verify the improvement

      Pre Layout Vias tecnology
Pre-layout
USB 3.0

At the pre-layout stage we can
define the budget we need to
garant a correct routing of the
board.

At the pre-layout stage we can
evaluate the surface roughness,
xtalk etc. effects yet.
Pre-layout
USB 3.0

At pre-layout stage we
can also define the
equalization’s parameters
we need to garant that
the involved bus does
work correctly.
Pre-Layout Analysis
Simulation Bus DDR4

It can be useful to define general
rules valid for all the data or
addresses of a DDR, helping the CAD
projectist to route a board that
already has predefined distances
and matchings.
To make the pre-layout stage closer
to a real situation, VIASes can be
extracted with ADS or EMPro.

Pre-Layout Optimization
Simulation Bus DDR4

ADS is a powerful optimization instrument
to improve our transmission line.
We used eye width and skew interchip
as optimization parameters to stay in the
standards managed by the processor
controller to have a fly-by topology.
Those parameters would change for a T
topology where the main problems are
reflections not the xtalk.
