Simulation, Analysis, and AI
Getting today’s designs “right the first time” is critical, especially with costly advanced PCBs. Simulation and analysis software tools can help you in the fight to eliminate respins. They’re not magical, but they can predict the future of your design. And if you’re designing high-performance, high-speed boards without using these tools, you may very well be on your way to respins.
As we learn in this month’s issue of Design007 Magazine, AI is already making inroads into the design cycle—and learning from its successes and missteps. Today’s simulation tools are now benefiting from machine learning and artificial intelligence. We’re still a long way from “push-button” operation, but as AI becomes more “intelligent” and learns from its design mistakes, there’s almost no limit to what AI could potentially offer PCB designers and engineers in the not-too-distant future.
In the feature interview, How Far Can We Trust AI? Sheldon Fernandez lays out the potential that AI holds for PCB design tools and explains the difference between AI and machine learning.
