Real-World Analysis of Oscilloscope Probes
This article conducts a real-world analysis of oscilloscope probes, comparing their performance and impact on signal measurements. The author tests a variety of probes, including both high-quality and budget options, revealing surprising results. Despite expectations, some budget probes perform comparably to more expensive ones, emphasizing that bandwidth alone is not the sole determinant of probe quality. The study underscores the importance of understanding a probe's behavior and choosing based on various factors beyond just bandwidth. Additionally, the article highlights that major brand-name probes (Diglent, Keysight, Rigol) offer more consistent performance and quality control compared to cheaper alternatives.

Simulation Driven Design Can Solve Your PCB’s Signal Problems and More
If you work in the electronics industry or in research, there’s a chance that simulations are a regular part of life. Simpler systems can be designed with intuition and simulated after designs are completed, but more advanced systems running at high frequencies or very high data rates need qualification before and after a PCB layout is complete. Simulation software has to take a more prominent role in PCB design for many advanced systems

When Trace Resistance Trumps Trace Impedance
Trace resistance, trace impedance, plane resistance, and plane impedace: when do you need to worry about all of these quantities? Resistance and impedance both are important in small traces and fat rails on a PCB, both internally and externally. Sometimes a new designer entering the world of impedance controlled buses might think they have a trace resistance target, when really they have a trace impedance target. While in power electronics, we
