| High-Frequency PCB design - RF Cafe Forums | ||||||
|
Because of the high maintenance needed to monitor and filter spammers from the RF Cafe Forums, I decided that it would
be best to just archive the pages to make all the good information posted in the past available for review. It is unfortunate
that the scumbags of the world ruin an otherwise useful venue for people wanting to exchanged useful ideas and views.
It seems that the more formal social media like Facebook pretty much dominate this kind of venue anymore anyway, so if
you would like to post something on RF Cafe's
Facebook page, please do.
Below are all of the forum threads, including all the responses to the original posts. Jai Post subject: High-Frequency PCB design Unread postPosted: Fri Mar 18, 2005 10:29 am Hello all, I want to design a PCB for very high frequencies (3-10GHz), specifically incorporating connector for antenna and a transceiver, baseband and MAC ICs. Can anybody guide me as to what software I can use to design it? Will ORCAD 10 be sufficient? Being new in PCB design, I would also appreciate guidelines on the various potential problems that I can face and how to solve them. Thanks a lot. Jai Top Guest Post subject: PCB Design Unread postPosted: Sun Mar 20, 2005 10:34 pm Hi, You have a tall order. First, lots of PCB packages (incliuding OrCad 10, if you know it or find its interface congenial to your taste) will let you design the board - but *analysis* (to see if you have a good-enough design) is a whole different story. To have a good shot at a functional design, you will need to know about microstrip. There are whole books on this subject: get one and read it! (Lots of people use the book(s) by Garg and Bahl, published by Artech House). Then you'll need a simulator - or maybe just a lot of board "turns" - layouts/fabs/tests/fix layout, do it again. Either way, Good Luck! Top Jai Post subject: Unread postPosted: Mon Mar 21, 2005 12:24 pm Thanx a lot for your info. I will look into microstrips. Also, would appreciate if you could tell me some simulators that are available in the market Posted 11/12/2012 | ||||||
