The term Signal Integrity (SI) addresses two main concerns which are the timing and quality of a received signal. The goal of signal integrity analysis is to ensure reliable high-speed data transmission. This thesis project examines the need to understand and limit dominating factors encountered in high speed network devices.
Industry constantly proposes new methods to increase signal propagation speeds by modifying PCB components. These modifications are aimed at improving impedance matching at discontinuities. Print circuit board (PCB) testing can be done with three-dimensional solvers governed by electromagnetic (EM) equations with appropriate boundary conditions.
3D electromagnetic field simulations will be …
