Current IssueSilicon to Systems: From Soup to Nuts
This month, we asked our expert contributors to weigh in on silicon to systems—what it means to PCB designers and design engineers, EDA companies, and the rest of the PCB supply chain... from soup to nuts.
Cost Drivers
In this month’s issue of Design007 Magazine, our expert contributors explain the impact of cost drivers on PCB designs and the need to consider a design budget. They discuss the myriad design cycle cost adders—hidden and not so hidden—and ways to add value.
Mechatronics
Our expert contributors discuss the advent of mechatronics in PCB design, the challenges and opportunities this creates for circuit board designers, and the benefits—to the employee and the company—of becoming a mechatronics engineer.

PADS Webinar: Simulate and Optimize Analog, Mixed-Signal Circuit Design
July 27, 2016 | Mentor GraphicsEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Taking a product design from concept to creation can be a complicated process of decisions and tradeoffs. Attention to every detail is required, particularly for the analog, mixed-signal portions of your design.
This webinar will introduce designers to the PADS AMS Design Suite, a complete design capture solution and analog, mixed-signal (AMS) virtual prototyping environment. With this suite, you will be able to create electronic product designs faster and easier while ensuring design intent, performance, and reliability.
What Attendees Will Learn
- Types of circuit simulation and analysis for behavioral verification, scenario exploration, and component optimization
- The power and flexibility of VHDL-AMS and SPICE-based simulation and modeling to accurately represent both a circuit’s electronic and electromechanical elements
- How to balance component costs with tight tolerances against their impact on circuit and manufacturing performance
- How to use a waveform analysis tool and expression calculator for in-depth analysis, measurement, and transformation of simulation data
- The use of the PADS AMS Design Suite for design, simulation, and analysis of analog, mixed-signal (AMS) circuits
About the Presenter
Josh Moore is a business development and product manager for Mentor Graphics specializing in new business development. He is responsible for strategic partnerships to establish and develop new market opportunities as well as product management for the PADS circuit simulation solutions.

From Silicon to Systems
09/10/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineFor the past few years, IPC has been championing the term “silicon to systems.” More than a buzzword, it has become a slogan—and even a kind of roadmap—for the organization. The term comes in especially handy when IPC is advocating for this industry in Washington, D.C., often addressing politicians who have little understanding of electronics technology.
The Shaughnessy Report: Silicon to Systems—The Walls Are Coming Down
09/10/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportTraditionally, most designers of PCBs and ICs have operated in separate silos, unaware of much of what’s happening upstream or downstream. IC designers did their thing, and PCB designers did theirs, and everything worked. Until recently, that is.
