Decoupling of PCB's
Decoupling of power and ground-reference planes is an important issue for both EMI emissions control and for circuit functionality. This topic has generated a lot of technical papers, and controversy. While there has been a lot of attention on this topic, there is still significant confusion about the best strategy for decoupling.
About this seminar
This talk focuses on the sources of noise that the decoupling capacitors are intended to control, and the physics involved in the noise propagation, and how to properly analyse the decoupling capacitor performance. The analysis must be performed in BOTH the time domain and the frequency domain. The frequency domain analysis is a steady state analysis, and will determine resonances, which are most useful for EMI emissions analysis. The time-domain analysis is a transient analysis and will help determine how well the current is delivered to the IC, and ultimately, how large (or small) the generated noise pulse will become. Real-world examples of measurements, as well as computer simulations are used to demonstrate the optimal decoupling strategy.
