EE 612/612L High-Speed Digital Design/Lab

Credits: (2.5-0.5) 3

This course is an introduction to signal integrity and the design of high-speed circuits and interconnects. Topics include signal integrity issues such as ringing, ground bounce, clock skew, jitter, crosstalk, and unwanted radiation, time-domain analysis and spice simulation of lumped and distributed high speed circuits, micro- strip and strip-line design, ground and power plane design, proper capacitor decoupling, line termination, and multi-layer routing strategies. The student is also introduced to high-speed measurement techniques and equipment.

Prerequisites: EE 220/220L and EE 320/320L or equivalent courses in introductory circuits and introductory electronics.
Corequisites: EE 612L
