Beyond Design: Integrated Circuit to PCB Integration
The Shaughnessy Report: Silicon to Systems—The Walls Are Coming Down
Quiet Power: An Evolution in PCB Design CostsDownStream Webinar May 6: PCB Documentation Tips
April 30, 2020 | DownStream TechnologiesEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Current tools and methodologies for PCB documentation are essentially workarounds that, rather than automating, in fact create obstacles to quickly producing detailed and accurate PCB documentation.
What is needed is a new approach to PCB documentation—a standalone PCB document authoring tool, developed in the style of Microsoft Office, which quickly creates electronic drawings to drive the PCB fabrication and assembly processes; a tool that “knows” it is creating a PCB document and leverages the PCB CAD data to automatically create and intelligently link PCB views, details, document notes, external documents, URLs and multimedia content.
Attendees will learn how to use BluePrint for Circuit Boards to take control of their documents through automation, while enhancing detail, accuracy, and instructions. High-quality PCB documentation leads to fewer questions, fewer errors, lower overall costs, and huge time savings.
This webinar takes place twice on Wednesday, May 6, 2020.

Beyond Design: Integrated Circuit to PCB Integration
09/11/2024 | Barry Olney -- Column: Beyond DesignTechnologies such as artificial intelligence, autonomous cars, smartphones, and wearable devices are significantly transforming the semiconductor industry. The miniaturization trend drives the IC footprint to an even smaller profile, requiring tighter margins. From the PCB designer’s perspective, smaller form factors are achievable, making devices more compact and lightweight. But double-sided SMT placement, reduced routing channels, and high-speed constraints create multiple challenges for designers. However, there are some advantages to miniaturization: shorter interconnects between the IC and the PCB reduce signal loss and electromagnetic interference. High-speed digital signals in the GHz range benefit from reduced parasitics.

It’s Only Common Sense: Modern Ways to Generate Leads
08/19/2024 | Dan Beaulieu -- Column: It's Only Common SenseNo matter what salespeople—especially old, or rather well-experienced salespeople—say about these times and all the newfangled software, CRM, and social media programs, the fact is, these are the best times to generate leads. There have never been so many great ways to generate new leads within minutes from the comfort of your laptop—be it in your office, a hotel room, a restaurant, or a coffee shop. No longer do we need those unwieldy directories with their SIC codes. Remember those beasts? Nor do we need those overpriced, outdated as soon as they were published, regional customer lists. Now we can just sit at our laptops anywhere and find potential new customers.
