Prototron’s Mark Thompson CID specializing in Technical Customer Support with a specialty in signal integrity/ controlled impedance will be giving the presentation titled:

“Common fab Concerns and Dealing with today’s Controlled Impedances”

He will be discussing typical issues seen from a Fabrication standpoint, missing pads, holes drilling through traces, same net space violations and other design and manufacturing issues. And  what is really necessary to be able to properly model impedances prior to lay out for a given customer and the importance of making sure the information is understood. (Understanding the variables of Signal Integrity – material selection, Dk, Propagation speeds, press params , etc...)He will also talk about solutions for “reasonable” trace and space for un-usual impedance requirements and how to reduce surface trace widths by use of Co-planar coupling.

The presentation will be followed by a brief virtual shop tour of a “typical” multilayer so the process’ are better understood.

Commented Mr. Ryder when making the announcement, “We are always looking for the opportunity to host events such as this one since our focus is always on helping our customers with their technical printed circuit board needs. If our customers succeed, then we succeed.”
