Current IssueProper Floor Planning
Floor planning decisions can make or break performance, manufacturability, and timelines. This month’s contributors weigh in with their best practices for proper floor planning and specific strategies to get it right.
Showing Some Constraint
A strong design constraint strategy carefully balances a wide range of electrical and manufacturing trade-offs. This month, we explore the key requirements, common challenges, and best practices behind building an effective constraint strategy.
All About That Route
Most designers favor manual routing, but today's interactive autorouters may be changing designers' minds by allowing users more direct control. In this issue, our expert contributors discuss a variety of manual and autorouting strategies.

I-Connect007 Launches The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… Power Integrity by Example Micro eBook
November 15, 2017 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute

I-Connect007 is excited to announce the release of the latest title in our micro eBook series: The Printed Designer's Guide to... Power Integrity by Example.
The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… is an ongoing series of micro eBooks specifically dedicated to the education of PCB designers. This book series has become the gold standard for people seeking the most relevant design information available.
The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… Power Integrity by Example is authored by Fadi Deek of Mentor, A Siemens Business. This title is a follow-up to Deek’s previous book on signal integrity, which is also available for download in our library.
This new book on power integrity provides a thorough investigation of power distribution network performance. Deek addresses problematic issues within electronic transmissions, and presents a variety of simulations and analyses in every chapter.
“An important message from this book is to know your parallel resonances because that will be where most of your noise comes from. You can also use the principles laid out in this book to help you avoid catastrophe in your next design,” says Dr. Eric Bogatin, dean of the Teledyne LeCroy Signal Integrity Academy.
Readers will better understand cause-effect relationships between varying factors, and how to consider these when making design decisions.
Download this free book today at I-007eBooks/PIE!
Here are some other exciting titles in The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to... eBook series:
- Design for Manufacturing (DFM) by Altium
- Flex and Rigid-Flex Fundamentals by American Standard Circuits
- Secrets of High-Speed PCBs – Parts 1 & 2 by Polar Instruments
...and these upcoming releases:
- Executing Complex PCBs by Freedom CAD
- Documentation by DownStream Technologies
- Thermal Management with Insulated Metal Substrates by Ventec International Group
We hope you enjoy The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to… Power Integrity by Example.

Global PCB Connections: Understanding the General Fabrication Process—A Designer’s Hidden Advantage
08/14/2025 | Markus Voeltz -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsDesigners don’t need to become fabricators, but understanding the basics of PCB fabrication can save you time, money, and frustration. The more you understand what’s happening on the shop floor, the better you’ll be able to prevent downstream issues. As you move into more advanced designs like HDI, flex circuits, stacked vias, and embedded components, this foundational knowledge becomes even more critical. Remember: the fabricator is your partner.
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.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Why Your PCB Looks Like a Studio Apartment
08/13/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonIn November 2022, I wrote a column called "Is Your Bathroom in the Kitchen?" This piece related a bizarre real estate listing that emerged out of St. Louis that had architects scratching their heads and interior designers cringing. Nestled in the historic Central West End sat a 200-square-foot apartment that completely defied logic. It wasn't the size that raised eyebrows, it was the layout. Here's the kicker: While that's rare in real estate, it's shockingly common in PCB design.
