PWB Power Structures -
Theory and Design
Presenter: Dr. Todd Hubing from the University of
Missouri,Rolla
Date : November 11th, 1999.
Times : 1:00pm - 4:30pm
Location: National Institute for Standards and
Technology (NIST) in Boulder Co. (Directions)
Room 1107
What we saw: The need for a good low
impedance power distribution is vital to the performance of todays high-speed computing.
It need not be said a great deal of lore is also involved especially in the area of
decoupling. The RMCEMC had another blockbuster turn out of 54 people to listen to Dr.
Hubing.The meeting kicked off with Rick Carbonneau giving the attendees a brief overview
of the NCMS Embedded Capacitance project. Dr Hubing then presented a 3 hour tutorial
that covered cover the theoretical aspects of power bus design and the seemingly
contradictory nature of EMC engineers who might favor a lossy system and Signal Integrity
engineers that demand a very low impedance distribution. Dr. Hubing also went over sone of
the performance data taken at the UMR EMC laboratory and finally presented some design
guidelines.
