Perform SI and PI analysis without leaving your PCB design environment.
You may think if your devices are operating at lower frequencies then your board is not high-speed; this not the case. This blog post helps you identify whether your PCB is considered high-speed.
Understanding the overall product design process, will empower engineers to innovate a finished product that will make consumers relate to it in powerful ways.
The ad-hoc design process has merit, but when is it more advantageous to adopt an ad-hoc vs. structured design? This blog post will discuss the benefits and drawbacks of using either in your own work.
Learn how to create a workflow in OrCAD PCB Editor detailing the steps required for a specific portion of your design.
Designs are increasing in complexity, which means there are more rules for engineers to maintain. Unfortunately, this also means more room for errors. How does a design engineer combat this?
An interview with Stephen Newberry, a signal integrity engineering expert, about how to produce efficient designs as well as common SI/PI issues.
The latest update of OrCAD PCB Designer 17.4 includes significant improvements to 3D Mapping. Now accessed through the 3D canvas, there are multiple options for accurate and efficient mapping of...
In a world that is constantly changing, so too is the world of PCB. As new engineers enter the field, it is important for them to know all the ins and outs of their career path to succeed.
Cadence Wins Gold Stevie® Awards in the 2020 International Business Awards® Program Awards Include Most Innovative Tech Company of the Year and Innovation of the Year for the Cadence Clarity 3D Solver
CLARITY VS. HFSS WINS PILING UP: And now, in this report, we have EIGHT users validating Clarity is real.
A year ago -- while everyone else missed it -- I *scooped* how Anirudh announcing his Clarity 3D solver at CDNlive'19 was actually a direct frontal attack against Ajei Gopal's Ansys HFSS.
Has anyone else ever thought about why so many engineers are also active amateur radio operators? My theory is that there's just so much passion for the science and practical use of these complex elec
With customizable component placement options using Quickplace in OrCAD, you can quickly and easily layout your board with placement by groups.
With OrCAD PSpice Designer Plus, easily simulate your circuit & ensure it is behaving as expected. This tutorial will show you how to optimize your design's overall performance & cost with PSpice.
The smoke analysis tools in PSpice makes it easy to find stressed components, so you can design a more reliable circuit. This step-by-step tutorial shows how to use these tools.
Waiting for shapes to repour each time an adjustment is made is no longer an option. The shape creation management tool within OrCAD allows you to easily create and adjust shapes in real-time.
Routing dense, complex boards is a time-consuming process, but with the interactive routing capabilities in OrCAD, it no longer takes a significant time investment. This tutorial will show you how.
Ensuring established rules are met is essential to produce quality designs. In-design impedance & coupling checks with OrCAD empower designers to screen for signal quality without being an SI expert.
Design Rule Checks find manufacturing errors as you design so you can be sure your product electrically performs as intended and can be manufactured. This tutorial will show you how to use OrCAD DRC.
Embedded rules and constraints allow PCB design intent to be conveyed clearly, reducing overall confusion among stakeholders. These instructions walk through Constraint Manager for OrCAD.
