Mentor White Paper--Concepts of Power Integrity: Controlling Impedance Across a Bare Cavity
August 27, 2018 | Fadi Deek, Mentor, a Siemens BusinessEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The power distribution network (PDN) is the path from the power supply source (VRM) to the ICs (active devices). At low impedance, the PDN delivers adequate current to the receiver, enabling the PCB to function as desired.
Without a low-impedance path across the PDN, noise can propagate throughout a PCB, causing bit errors, voltage ripples, timing violations, and more. This white paper by Fadi Deek of Mentor, a Siemens Business, examines how impedance can be controlled in the PDN cavity.

High-frequency EMC Noise in DC Circuits
05/29/2025 | Karen Burnham, EMC UnitedEMC isn’t black magic, but it’s easy to understand why it seems that way. When looking at a schematic like that in Figure 1, it looks like you’re only dealing with DC signals all across the board. There’s a 28 VDC input that goes through an EMI filter, then gets converted to 12 VDC power. Except in extremely rare circumstances involving equipment sensitive to magnetostatic fields, DC electricity will never be part of an EMC problem.
