Current Trends in Signal Integrity
If you think signal integrity is just a design problem, think again. As board features get smaller, as speeds get faster, and as more is expected from everyone in the supply chain, signal integrity should have everyone’s attention. This month, our experts explain why.
Check it all out this month in The PCB Magazine, now on the virtual newsstand and available for delivery in your e-mailbox each month by subscribing here.

Elementary Mr. Watson: Running the Signal Gauntlet
09/11/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIf you’ve ever run a military obstacle course, you know it’s less “fun fitness challenge” and more “how can we inflict as much pain in the shortest time possible?” You start fresh—chest out, lungs full of confidence, thinking you might even look good doing this—and 10 seconds later, you’re questioning all your life choices.
The Shaughnessy Report: Winning the Signal Integrity Battle
09/09/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportWhen I first started covering this industry in 1999, signal integrity was the hip new thing in PCB design. Conference classes on signal integrity were packed to the walls, and an SI article was guaranteed to get a lot of reads.
The Signal Integrity Issue: Design007 Magazine September 2025
09/09/2025 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamAs the saying goes, “If you don’t have signal integrity problems now, you will eventually.” This month, our experts share a variety of design techniques that can help PCB designers and design engineers achieve signal integrity.
Beyond Design: Effective Floor Planning Strategies
08/20/2025 | Barry Olney -- Column: Beyond DesignComponent placement on a printed circuit board is more involved than simply fitting parts into available space. It plays a pivotal role in determining the board’s overall manufacturability, performance, reliability, and cost. Poor placement can compromise even the most meticulously designed PCB. Effective component placement alleviates mechanical stress, promotes efficient thermal management, and helps prevent excessive heat buildup.
The Art and Science of PCB Floor Planning: A Comprehensive Guide
08/14/2025 | Cory Grunwald and Jeff Reinhold, Monsoon SolutionsPCB design is an intricate and crucial part of developing electronic products. One of the foundational stages of PCB design is floor planning, a phase where the placement of components and the flow of signals are meticulously mapped out. A good floor plan ensures that the PCB performs well, is easy to manufacture, and meets all mechanical and electrical requirements. We’ll explore the essential aspects of floor planning, from its objectives and process to the challenges that designers face.
