PDN optimization for high-speed digital board

Tool

Ansys SIwave

Domain

PCB signal & power integrity

Result

−34 dB impedance peak reduction

−34 dB impedance peak reduction

Background

[Placeholder — describe the board: target data rates, power rails involved, the resonance issue found pre-production and why it was a risk.]

Approach

[Placeholder — describe the SIwave PDN analysis setup: importing the board stackup, identifying the problematic power rails, frequency range analyzed.]

□ SIwave PDN impedance plot (before)

Process

[Placeholder — describe how resonance modes were identified, the decap placement optimization process, what constraints existed (component keep-outs, BOM cost limits).]

□ Impedance plot before vs after / decap placement map

Results

[Placeholder — quantify the result. −34 dB peak reduction, which rail, what the target impedance spec was and how the final design met it.]
