Example Snapshots From Some Of The Signal Integrity Interactive Software Modules The following slides highlight some of the output graphs/plots from the interactive Signal Integrity software The software is highly interactive and allows the user to change many of the system variables in order to learn as much from the software as possible

Module 40 The Impact Of Signal Jumping From A Reference Ground Plane To A Different Reference Ground Plane With A High-Impedance Load Example Frequency Responses Example Input and Output Eye Patterns The software enables the user to change the input risetime, via size, bit rate, transmission bandwidth, etc., in order to see their impact on the signal integrity of the output signal. Output Input

Module 42 Via Stubs On Single-Ended Interconnects And Their Impact On Signal Integrity Example 2Gbs Output Eye Pattern With A High-Impedance Load Example 2Gbs Output Eye Pattern With A Matched Load Example 2Gbs Input Eye Pattern Other time-domain, as well as frequency-domain results are generated in the software. All system variables can be modified by the user.
