SiLab DVD Volume III
High-Speed Noise and Grounding: More Black Magic
3.1 Mixed-Signal Isolation
Watch Dr. Johnson prove his rules for signal isolation at audio frequencies with concrete laboratory demonstrations. At radio frequencies everything gets harder, but he still manages to achieve isolation better than one part in a million (120 dB). (Measured data)
3.2 BGA Ground Ball Placement
Dr. Johnson modifies, in real time, the pattern of power and ground pins within a large BGA package while observing the difference in crosstalk obtained with various patterns. (Measured data)
3.3 RoHS (Joe Fjelstad)
Have doubts about lead-free solder? Joe Fjelstad, an expert in interconnection technology, drops a bomb on the whole process, explaining why the RoHS lead-free solder initiative is not better for the environment, it is actually worse. His argument, which comes straight from the U.S. EPA, undercuts the whole basis of RoHS legislation.
