Fundamentals of Signal Integrity

Today's world of gigabit per second transfer rates require engineers to combine simulation, modeling and measurement to in order to avoid signal integrity issues in their designs.

The following videos and articles introduce fundamental signal integrity concepts and methods used to predict where signal integrity issues may become problematic in your designs, and to verify & debug your high-speed serial data circuits.

LeCroy's Serial Data Analyzers, Signal Integrity Network Analyzers and Signal Integrity Studio Software include state-of-the-art acquisition and analysis tools to help you minimize the time required to pinpoint signal integrity issues. For more information on signal integrity concepts, visit Eric Bogatin's BeTheSignal website.
