of Contents
This is an advanced-level reference text for
experienced digital designers who want to
press their designs to the upper limits of
speed and distance.
This book is a companion to the original
book by Johnson and Graham, High-Speed
Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic,
Prentice Hall, 1993. The two books may be
used separately or together. They cover
different material.
The original book deals with a broad
spectrum of high-speed phenomena. It builds
a solid understanding of ringing, crosstalk,
ground bounce, and power supply noise as
they exist on printed circuit boards. It
emphasizes basic circuit configurations
where these effects may be easily understood
and learned. It treats supplementary
subjects including chip packages,
oscilloscope probe, and power systems for
high-speed digital products.
This High-Speed Signal Propagation book is
more highly specialized, delving into issues
relevant to transmission at the upper limits
of speed and distance. If you need to
transmit faster and further than ever
before, this book shows you how.
High-Speed Digital Design and High-Speed
Signal Propagation together comprise a good
reference set for persons working with
high-speed digital technology.
