Current IssueCreating the Ideal Data Package
Why is it so difficult to create the ideal data package? Many of these simple errors can be alleviated by paying attention to detail—and knowing what issues to look out for. So, this month, our experts weigh in on the best practices for creating the ideal design data package for your design.
Designing Through the Noise
Our experts discuss the constantly evolving world of RF design, including the many tradeoffs, material considerations, and design tips and techniques that designers and design engineers need to know to succeed in this high-frequency realm.
Learning to Speak ‘Fab’
Our expert contributors clear up many of the miscommunication problems between PCB designers and their fab and assembly stakeholders. As you will see, a little extra planning early in the design cycle can go a long way toward maintaining open lines of communication with the fab and assembly folks.

Interactive Reference Designs are Now Available from Trinamic on Ultra Librarian
February 23, 2021 | Ultra LibrarianEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Ultra Librarian®, the world's largest free cloud-based CAD library provider, has announced its partnership with Trinamic and Cadence to provide intelligent reference designs for download from Ultra Librarian. “These top reference designs from Trinamic in Cadence formats with CAD models from Ultra Librarian help design engineers jumpstart the design process,” said Manny Marcano, president and CEO of EMA. “This eliminates the tremendous number of hours typically spent recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts.”
Reference designs are a valuable design tool for engineers to accelerate the design process and bring ideas to life faster. Instead of working from a pdf, engineers can download native CAD files in Cadence systems formats from Trinamic. There is no need to spend the time recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts. With intelligent reference designs available in Ultra Librarian, designs can be downloaded along with all associated CAD models.
These designs have been built, tested, and authorized by the manufacturers and verified by Ultra Librarian to ensure accuracy of the design and associated models. Each download comes with a complete Bill of Materials ready for purchasing.
“Especially when it comes to designing applications, time is a precious resource as being first to market can make all the difference,” said Jonas P. Proeger, Director, Business Management at Trinamic Motion Control, now part of Maxim Integrated. “The performance of motor control applications depends on a good routing and component choice. With the offering of design files covering Trinamic's most popular evaluation boards, engineers can save precious resources and reduce time to market without compromising on quality.”

RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.
