Overview
Explore the behavior of differential pair signals traveling through PCBs in this comprehensive 1-hour 22-minute tutorial featuring Robert Feranec and Yuriy Shlepnev. Observe detailed visualizations of how differential pairs behave in various PCB configurations including thin and thick boards, different spacing widths (1W and 3W), top/bottom routing, internal routing, and scenarios without ground planes. The presentation includes 3D animations that clearly demonstrate field and current patterns, concluding with practical crosstalk examples. Gain valuable insights from Simberian's expertise to improve your high-speed PCB design skills and better understand the electromagnetic behavior of differential pairs in real-world applications.
