| Rouse future digital input designs
|
2008-10-03 |
| Modern digital input module designs require high-channel count, small form factor, low-power consumption and high data rates. Conventional designs using discrete resistor-diode networks are unable to match requirements due to high-power use and extensive component count. Instead, new innovative circuit designs such as digital input serializers exceed requirements and thus, lay the groundwork for future digital input designs. |

| Reap the rewards of package-aware design
|
2008-10-01 |
| Chip designers must consider package routability, power delivery and I/O behavior during the initial I/O planning process. To do so, they should combine package-aware I/O planning with automated floor-plan synthesis, which can be very cost-effective for the chip floor plan and the package layout. |
