Current IssueProper Floor Planning
Floor planning decisions can make or break performance, manufacturability, and timelines. This month’s contributors weigh in with their best practices for proper floor planning and specific strategies to get it right.
Showing Some Constraint
A strong design constraint strategy carefully balances a wide range of electrical and manufacturing trade-offs. This month, we explore the key requirements, common challenges, and best practices behind building an effective constraint strategy.
All About That Route
Most designers favor manual routing, but today's interactive autorouters may be changing designers' minds by allowing users more direct control. In this issue, our expert contributors discuss a variety of manual and autorouting strategies.

iNEMI Packaging Tech Topic Series Webinar: LSI/PKG/PCB Co-Design
November 21, 2023 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute

iNEMI Packaging Tech Topic Series Webinar, LSI/PKG/PCB Co-Design to Support 3D-IC/Chiplet Design will be held on November 28, 2023, by guest speaker Kazunari Koga, Zuken Inc.
Chips and packages have different manufacturing methods and data sizes, so the design tools are also different. This webinar will introduce new software technology that can handle — in one tool —two types of design data. This technology connects design data for different technologies in a hierarchical structure and allows all data to be edited simultaneously. It also addresses the issues of designing a package that implements chiplets. This includes the challenges of large-scale design data (due to increasing nets between chips), device implementation of heterogeneous technologies with a mixture of substrate and silicon, and I/O design complexity.
About the Speaker
Kazunari Koga
Zuken Inc.
Mr. Koga has been working with development of an LSI/package/board (LPB) co-design environment since 2007. He joined the JEITA LPB working group in 2010, and participated in the development of LPB formats, which became an IEEE standard in 2015. He was also involved in the Semiconductor Technology Academic Research Center’s (STARC’s) development of a design methodology for 3D ICs, and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization’s (NEDO’s) development project for a 3D integrated design and verification platform.

Global PCB Connections: Understanding the General Fabrication Process—A Designer’s Hidden Advantage
08/14/2025 | Markus Voeltz -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsDesigners don’t need to become fabricators, but understanding the basics of PCB fabrication can save you time, money, and frustration. The more you understand what’s happening on the shop floor, the better you’ll be able to prevent downstream issues. As you move into more advanced designs like HDI, flex circuits, stacked vias, and embedded components, this foundational knowledge becomes even more critical. Remember: the fabricator is your partner.
The Art and Science of PCB Floor Planning: A Comprehensive Guide
08/14/2025 | Cory Grunwald and Jeff Reinhold, Monsoon SolutionsPCB design is an intricate and crucial part of developing electronic products. One of the foundational stages of PCB design is floor planning, a phase where the placement of components and the flow of signals are meticulously mapped out. A good floor plan ensures that the PCB performs well, is easy to manufacture, and meets all mechanical and electrical requirements. We’ll explore the essential aspects of floor planning, from its objectives and process to the challenges that designers face.
