2 Synopsis SBL-Khas Due to hunger for high data throughput, signal switching speeds are getting faster and the power s upply voltages are going down. This trend makes s ignal corruption prevails but the issues were often solved in inconsistent ways or by trial-and-error. Therefore, it is important to detect where things are going wrong during simulation or in the prototype and to track down the source of the problem. This cours e s tarts with an introduction to the operating principles of high-s peed digital transmission. The common signal integrity (SI) problems are also explained. The troubleshooting and measurement techniques to find the root cause of a problem are discussed and possible solutions are suggested. What You Will Learn Signal integrity problems in digital communication Techniques for troubles hooting and s olving s ignal integrity problems Measurement theories and diagnose techniques such as eye diagram and jitter analysis Who Should Attend Technicians and engineers who are involved in product marketing, production, tes t and development, validation, and QA of high-s peed digital boards, components, circuits, and systems for data communications. Prerequisite Technical background in electrical, electronics, phys ics, mathematics at Diploma or Degree levels. Course Methodology The students are first taught the basic concepts of high-speed signal integrity (SI) and data communication signal quality in classroom setting with the aid of video and computer simulation tools. The concepts are then re-enforced through case studies of how the theories are applied in real implementation. Demons trations us ing the meas urement ins truments and high-s peed trans ceiver board will be carried out to illus trate various principles and techniques. Course Duration 2 day(s), 9am - 5pm Course Structure page 2/7

Jitter meas urement of digital bit s tream in time-domain. Eye Diagram meas urement and interpretation Pre-emphas is and equalization techniques Methods for recovering s ignal Hands-on Session: Demonstrating SI noise and signal quality measurement Course Instructor(s) Prof Dr Fabian Kung Dr Fabian Kung obtained his B.Eng. and M.Eng.Sc. in electrical engineering from Univers ity of Malaya, Malaysia in 1994 and 1997 respectively. He obtained his PhD., also in electrical engineering from Multimedia Univers ity, Malays ia in Prior to his current role as Associate Professor in Multimedia University, Dr Kung worked as a res earch engineer in Intel Technology where he undertook high frequency PCB des ign and research for testing and performance verification of VLSI circuits such as the Pentium family of microprocessors and network controller. Dr Kung then joined GMS Technology Sdn Bhd as a page 3/7

4 senior engineer where he conducted research and developed new products based on embedded s ys tem technology. His post-graduate research were in the areas of high-speed PCB modeling and modeling of electromagnetic wave propagation in PCB and related structures. Dr Kung is a very keen electronic enthus ias t, focus ing on RF/Microwave circuit des ign, embedded s ys tem development and robotics. He is a member of Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM). Mr Chai Ched Chang Mr Chai Ched Chang received his B.Eng (Hons) from University of Malaya, Malaysia, and M.EngSc from Multimedia University, Malaysia. He was one of the pioneer researchers on signal integrity (SI) in Multimedia University. From 1998 to 2001, he had accomplished research projects in cros s talk, PCB modelling us ing3-d full-wave Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method, and lab meas urement. His res earch outcome was publis hed in reputable international conference and journal through Multimedia Univers ity. Mr Chai then began his career as a signal integrity engineer in 2001 at Ultimate Technologies Asia Sdn Bhd, and specialized in designing high-speed PCB. He had delivered many consumer electronics PCB designs, where he is specifically experienced in resolving SI issues as s ociated with high-s peed memory (SDRAM, DDR, DDR2, DDR3, etc.), differential s ignaling (LVDS, HDMI, USB, PCI Expres s, Ethernet, etc.), and other digital interfaces (FPGA interface, FLASH memory, video bus, ADC & DAC, etc.). He also has vast experience in making PCB stack-up, and high-speed signal simulation and analysis. In 2012, Mr Chai left Ultimate Technologies As ia as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technical Officer, and started his company, irtec Consulting Sdn Bhd. With over two decades of combined experience in both research and industry, he continues to strive to provide the best signal integrity consultation service with the vision to help his clients design products that meet their s tringent quality requirements and s horten their product development cycle. page 4/7
