All About That Route: Design007 Magazine June 2025
June 9, 2025 | I-Connect007 Editorial TeamEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
 
                                                                    Do you prefer manual routing or autorouting? That might be a loaded question. Maybe you’re one of the designers who performs manual routing with an autorouter. Most designers favor manual routing, but today's interactive autorouters may be changing designers' minds by allowing users more direct control.
In the June 2025 issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors discuss a variety of manual and autorouting strategies. EDA company product managers also weigh in on their latest autorouting technologies, and they explain how designers can exercise a high level of direct control or allow full automation through interactive AI.

The Shaughnessy Report: Watt About Power Integrity?
10/08/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportYes, that headline is the equivalent of a dad joke, but editors can’t pass up a chance to inject a little humor into a headline, and I had to take my shot. Power integrity (PI) problems are no joke. Current power demands are increasing, especially with AI, 5G, and EV chips, which can lead to voltage drops that kill your performance.
New Fil Arzola Class: Designing for the Future, and for Sustainability
10/07/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007If you have not yet taken a class from Fil Arzola, you are missing out. In late October, Fil will be teaching the class "Building Sustainable Model-Based PCBs," speaking from the design perspective. I had the pleasure of catching this course at last year's IPC APEX EXPO, and I walked away with a lot to think about. I asked Fil to discuss his upcoming course. Registration is open now.

Elementary Mr. Watson: Chasing Checkmarks, Not Signal Integrity
10/01/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonFor the September 2025 issue of Design007 Magazine on signal integrity, I explored how the PCB is similar to a military obstacle course: walls that sap energy like impedance mismatches, barbed wire that cuts like crosstalk, and mud pits that drag a signal down like attenuation. The takeaway was clear that a PCB is not a flat drawing; it's an electromagnetic ecosystem filled with hazards that test every signal that dares to cross it. The real danger lies not in the obstacles themselves, but in the fact that many designers never see them.
