Over the past two years, I’ve worked on nearly a dozen radar modules, mostly targeting the automotive market. Closely related fields are drone radar, radar sensors for robots and industrial systems, radar vital sign sensing, motion and gesture tracking, and advanced security systems. The big fish from a business standpoint is in automotive, where more and more ADAS systems are looking for better ways to capture important data from the surrounding...

Engineers are some of the most entrepreneurial people I have ever met. If you're an engineer with a great idea, there is a process to turning that into a product, and to turning the process into a real business. Maybe you have stumbled on a totally disruptive idea that will turn the industry on its head. Maybe you just want a more reliable Bluetooth device on your home network. If you’ve ever been frantically sketching out your idea on the back...

Crosstalk Analysis, Reduction, and Elimination Techniques in PCB Design

11 min
Blog
Whether you're designing a digital board with a ton of traces, or an RF board operating at very high frequencies, any electronic device with propagating signals will experience crosstalk. It's simply a matter of whether that crosstalk is so extreme that the system fails to function, or whether crosstalk is within some acceptable limit. There is no universal level of "acceptable" crosstalk levels, but if you do find through simulation and...
