50 Years of Moore‘s Law
Moore’s Law was published on April 19, 1965 by Gordon E.
Moore, who was working as the director of R&D at
Fairchild Semiconductor.
The complexity of
electronic circuits doubles
approx. every 2 years:
(Number of constraints)
2^(x/2)

Cadence PCB Design Philosophy
Scalable Solution
A scalable tool solution can grow with future needs and
protects investment in libraries and designs for future
reuse. Cadence data base is upward compatible since
1990
Constraint Driven PCB Flow
Designs are getting more complex over time and more
design rules need to be followed. Cadence offers a fast
and clear view to all contraints with online DRCs
Efficiency
When design tools are used the whole day, the most
used actions need to be easy and efficient and with
less mouse clicks and mouse kilometers

Power Aware SI Analyse mit Sigrity
Current will take the way with least resistance
• DC: Ohm Resistance
• AC: Impedance
Forward and return current build a circuit.
Loops and stubs create antennas and
cause EMI issues.

When starts „High-Speed“
• If Rise-/Fall time of transmitter is faster as 1/4 of Round-Trip Propagation Delay of the Net, you have the behaviour of a Transmission Line.

SI-Problems are hard to “see”
• Let’s just look at two trace segments on a 6-layer PCB
• We see:
– 2 trace segments
– Same width
– Same impedance
– Different trace length
• Where is the problem?

What about the return path (reference planes)
• Trace9047 – 1 uniform impedance section
• Trace9048: – 4 different impedance sections
• No ideal plane layers! – Directly above and below
– Impedance discontinuities
• Does this matter?
– Depends

ERC – Trace coupling
• Trace9047 is one uniform
impedance section
• Trace9047 broken into 5
sections based on trace
coupling
– two section with no coupling
(1 & 5)
– two sections 2-line coupling
(2 & 4)
– one section 3-line coupling

Typical Applications
• Screen board and identify worst case for further
analysis
• Investigate SI impact of design rule violations and
trade-offs
• Find out how to fix SI problems shown in SRC
simulation
• ERC is used to locate the problem
• Compare against ERC/SRC results with
– Known-good design
– Reference design
– Part of the design that has been fully analyzed
