IC Board Design: A Technical Guide to PCB Layout
Why is PCB layout so important for an IC board design? PCB layout is the crucial moment when we turn the theoretical elegance of a schematic into a piece of hardware that works reliably and can be manufactured. For any complex board with a complex integrated circuit (IC), such as a microcontroller, an accelerator like an FPGA, or a sensitive RF transceiver, we are not simply connecting one point to another. PCB layout is an engineering specialty that has a huge influence on the performance, signal int......
