One of the best books I have read on High Speed Design

March 15, 2001

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book spells out (using math and English) what I had learned the hard way over years of hardware design and takes the black magic out of why high speed systems work the way they do. My favorite practice was to go running for this book as a second opinion whenever someone didn't grasp what I was saying about intricate signal or grounding related issues. From PCB layout, to circuit design practices to how to get your oscilloscope to accurately display the real signal, this book tackles it all..

A valuable reference for High Speed Digital Design

January 24, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I was just a student when I got the book. At first I was skeptical of the notion of treating the explanation of the topics discussed as "Black Magic," but as I learned more about High Speed Digital Design, I started to embrace it.

Simply essential for PCB design

January 24, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This handbook is absolutely a must if you have to deal with PCB design. It discloses, in a very practical manner, many tricks that help in the design of a PCB. It's clear that it's written from direct practical experience and because of that it's incredibly useful.

Very easy to read and very useful for EE.

I read the whole book, it is easy to understand, it avoids a lot of the more complex EM theory and make it very simple to understand.
