High-Speed PCB Design Guide

In the modern world, complexity of electronic products has increased due to the demand for higher performance such as faster data transfers, better image processing, higher computing power, and greater functionality. This has resulted in higher component count in PCBs, higher signal frequencies of the order of 5GHz and more, high-speed interfaces such as HDMI, DDR-3/4, Gigabit ethernet, and HDI (High Density Interconnect) PCB technologies having blind and buried microvias. In the future, the demand for even higher performance from computers, mobiles, and communication devices would require PCBs to be designed to cope with even higher speed of operation and higher component densities.
