DesignCon 2019
ANSYS electromagnetic simulation solutions are the gold standard for signal integrity, power integrity and EMI analysis. Shrinking timing and noise margins in PCBs, electronic packages, connectors and other complex electronic interconnects require a platform where engineers can simulate and design entire electronic products with all the necessary physics and system effects. ANSYS simulation technology for chip-package-board design allows you to evaluate electrical, thermal and structural behavior prior to build and test, enabling your design team to optimize system performance and achieve first-pass design success.

Introducing Electromigration Analysis
SIwave 2019 R1 introduces an estimate of the median-time-to-failure (MTTF) of metallization based on a variant of Black's equation. The formulation in SIwave uses current density and temperature results from SIwave-DC and SIwave-Icepak simulations to provide a fast calculation of MTTF that includes the effect of actual design geometry and material properties. This talk will briefly review background on electromigration and the formulation of Black's equation in SIwave and present the benefits for designers based on several example calculations.

Modeling of Critical Crosstalk Paths for High Sampling Rate RF Direct Data Converters in a Programmable RFSoC
Crosstalk minimization is a big challenge in today’s high-speed electronics systems. The crosstalk between the high-speed digital, mixed and RF analog signals must be well controlled to achieve the targeted performance. The Xilinx RFSoC is such a device in which all the three types of circuits are integrated. 3D and 2.5D fields solver simulations are essential to find the major horizontal and vertical coupling paths to accelerate the co-optimization of the crosstalk in both RFSoC package and PCB designs.
