Why Do We Need PCB Signal Integrity Analysis in High-Speed Devices
Data Integrity?
Distorted signals can lead to errors, data corruption, or even complete system failure.
Timing and Jitter
Poor signal integrity can cause timing errors, leading to synchronization problems and performance degradation.
Noise and Crosstalk
Signal integrity issues can result in noise and crosstalk, which can interfere with the desired signal and compromise the overall system performance.
Electromagnetic Interference
Inadequate signal integrity can lead to significant electromagnetic interference, affecting nearby components and potentially violating regulatory requirements.

Our Signal Integrity Analysis Services in PCB Design
Pre-layout signal integrity check: Identify potential issues early on
Early-stage simulations predict signal integrity problems before they become expensive to fix. We focus on schematic and preliminary board layouts to optimize traces and implement suitable termination schemes for flawless signal integrity. This proactive approach saves time and resources by addressing potential issues early on.
Post-layout signal integrity check: Ensure optimal performance
Post layout, we integrate PCB layout and simulation software to gain insights into traces, components, and parasitic effects. Verifying signal integrity in the real world helps ensure optimal performance.
