You have a question, we have an answer. Today's #AskTek question:

Signal integrity (SI) refers to the quality of the electrical signals as they travel through a printed circuit board (PCB), connector, or cable.
In a perfect world, digital signals are clean square waves like the ones shown in the image below. But in high-speed systems the signal gets distorted by:
π Transmission line effects (impedance mismatches)
π Reflections
π Crosstalk
π Power/ground noise
π Electromagnetic interference (EMI)
Even things like board layout and vias start to matter a lot when you're working at GHz speeds.
We donβt just measure signalsβwe help engineers understand them. Let us know what questions you have in the comments and subscribe to learn more. π
