With the increasing complexities in PCB Design, Signal Integrity and Power Integrity Analysis of the circuit boards are gaining unprecedented significance. Designing a good PDN & performing power integrity analysis is the key for low voltage, high transient current, high-speed and high-density designs. A robust Power Distribution Network (PDN) supplies a clean and stable voltage to various components and ensures reliable performance of the hardware. Power Integrity Analysis is important to develop reliable designs and also to identify and troubleshoot probable issues early in the design phase. Finding the impedance at different locations on the board is often critical in power integrity analysis. Impedance varies based on the position of capacitors, mounting methods and the type and value of capacitors used on the board. This process, also known as decoupling analysis, will help in determining and minimizing the impedance between the source and load at various frequencies. Mistral has years of expertise in Power Distribution Network Analysis Services and offers proven Power Distribution Network (PDN) models and flawless power integrity analysis services essential for high speed complex designs.

Power Distribution Network Analysis Services

Mistral has proven experience in Power Distribution Network Analysis methodologies to achieve better Power Integrity (PI), which include plane resistance/inductance, via current capability, current density, appropriate layer selection, target impedance, decoupling capacitor (type, quantity and values) and capacitor mounting inductance. High Density Interconnect (HDI) PCBs are gaining more popularity to address the needs of complex, small form factor designs. HDI PCBs may have higher EMI due to smaller vias and densely packed components, and thereby higher impact on the power integrity of the board. Mistral helps you design complex PCBs with minimum power supply output variation, least interference between traces and the PDN, while adequately managing the power dissipation. Mistral has immense experience designing, developing and deploying numerous complex HDI PCBs with superior signal integrity and power integrity expertise for various applications in Avionics, Industrial, Medical, Telecom and Automotive among others.
