Current IssueRules of Thumb
This month, we delve into rules of thumb—which ones work, which ones should be avoided. Rules of thumb are everywhere, but there may be hundreds of rules of thumb for PCB design. How do we separate the wheat from the chaff, so to speak?
Partial HDI
Our expert contributors provide a complete, detailed view of partial HDI this month. Most experienced PCB designers can start using this approach right away, but you need to know these tips, tricks and techniques first.
Silicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.

Cadence Presented with Four 2019 TSMC Partner of the Year Awards
November 1, 2019 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) was presented with four TSMC Partner of the Year awards at the TSMC 2019 Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) Ecosystem Forum. Cadence achieved recognition for the joint development of the N6 design infrastructure, SoIC design solution, cloud-based productivity solution and DSP IP.
These awards were given to Cadence based on the following work that has been delivered:
N6 design infrastructure: Cadence participated in an in-depth collaboration with TSMC on the design infrastructure development of this advanced process technology and has been working with customers on N6 design starts both on production designs and test chips.
SoIC Design Solution: Cadence collaborated with TSMC on the development of a design solution and delivered a reference flow that includes a full suite of Cadence® digital and signoff, custom/analog, and IC package and PCB analysis tools.
Cloud-based TSMC OIP Virtual Design Environment (VDE): Cadence collaborated with TSMC to add the CloudBurst™ Platform to Cadence-managed OIP VDE environments, elevating ease of use and enabling mutual customers to tape out advanced process designs using digital, custom and verification flows delivered via the cloud to improve overall productivity and meet compressed schedules.
DSP IP: Cadence worked with TSMC to enable customers to complete successful projects using the Cadence Tensilica® DSP IP, a widely-used DSP IP in the TSMC portfolio.
“Our continued collaboration with Cadence is enabling our customers to utilize our advanced technologies to design with confidence and meet design goals,” said Suk Lee, TSMC senior director of the Design Infrastructure Marketing Division. “We look forward to seeing our customers unleash their silicon innovations in their respective markets using our advanced N6, TSMC-SoIC®, cloud, and DSP IP solutions.”
“Through our close collaboration with TSMC, we’re enabling mutual customers to consistently deliver successful innovations using our latest technologies,” said Dr. Chin-Chi Teng, senior vice president and general manager of the Digital & Signoff Group at Cadence. “These awards from TSMC exemplify Cadence’s commitment to delivering upon its Intelligent System Design strategy, which enables customers to achieve SoC design excellence.”

Rules of Thumb for PCB Layout
11/21/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007The dictionary defines a “rule of thumb” as “a broadly accurate guide or principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory.” Rules of thumb are often the foundation of a PCB designer’s thought process when tackling a layout. Ultimately, a product spec or design guideline will provide the detailed design guidance, but rules of thumb can help to provide the general guidance that will help to streamline the layout process and avoid design or manufacturing issues.

Flexible Thinking: Rules of Thumb: A Word to the Wise
11/20/2024 | Joe Fjelstad -- Column: Flexible ThinkingIn the early days of electronics manufacturing—especially with PCBs—there were no rules. Engineers, scientists, and technicians largely felt their way around in the dark, making things up as they went along. There was a great deal of innovation, guessing, and testing to make sure that early guidelines and estimates were correct by testing them. Still, they frequently made mistakes.
