Designing Proper Work-Life Balance
In this issue, we hear from designers, marketers, and business owners on how they apply their professional skills to their personal lives to build a healthier work-life balance.
Designing Proper Planes
Without planes, designers would have to create thousands of traces to accomplish the same objectives. Power planes provide low impedance and stable power, and ground planes stabilize reference voltage, improve thermal performance, and help preclude EMI issues.
Power Integrity
Current power demands are increasing, especially with AI, 5G, and EV chips. This month, our experts share “watt’s up” with power integrity, from planning and layout through measurement and manufacturing.

Mentor Webinar on Best Practice Design Processes
December 13, 2018 | Mentor, a Siemens businessEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Increasing performance requirements coupled with a pressure to improve product quality are driving engineering teams to consider alternatives to their current validation approach. Best-practice design processes validate a digital twin model of your design early and often to minimize re-spins and actually shorten the overall design cycle.
This 'left shift' approach enables design engineers and layout designers to validate within their native environment, minimizing the bottleneck waiting for specialist reviews, and freeing the specialists to resolve the remaining critical issues.
This session will look at new, integrated technologies for analysis and verification deployed throughout the design process, including: schematic verification, signal & power integrity, electrical sign-off, thermal, vibration, testability and manufacturability.
This webinar is presented by David Wiens, product manager of the Systems Design Division of Mentor Graphics, a Siemens business.
