Panel Participants: Eric Bogatin (University of Colorado Boulder - moderator), Gary Lytle (Cadence), Parker Hranicky (Electro Magnetic Applications, Inc.), Todd Westerhoff (Siemens), and Juliano Mologni (Ansys)



Abstract:

Interconnects are not transparent. This means that the electromagnetic properties of the cables, circuit board traces, package leads, and connector pins will only degrade system performance. The goal in product design is to keep the distortion of signals by the interconnects to an acceptable level. An electromagnetic (EM) simulator is an important tool to reduce multiple hardware iterations to save time and money. This panel pulls together industry user and developer experts to provide a perspective on how EM simulation tools are used in the product design workflow and what options are available with commercial tools. Prof Eric Bogatin moderates this panel.
