We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Signal integrity issues",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Oscilloscopes turn to FlexRay analysis from
Agilent Technologies Europe, which we summarised at the time by saying "Allows automotive designers using embedded MCUs to verify proper signal integrity of their FlexRay signals and effectively debug protocol and signal integrity issues".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Test application improves reliability from
Agilent Technologies Europe: "The Agilent U7231A DDR3 application automatically configures the oscilloscope for each test and generates an HTML report at the end of the test".
In July 2007, we covered the news from Synopsys
- take a look at Acquisition to expand IP portfolio to DDR
which says: "Synopsys is set to acquire the semiconductor IP assets of Mosaid Technologies, and will integrate these into its DesignWare IP portfolio".
Take a look also at the news release from Teravicta Technologies, MEMS switch boosts ATE switching frequencies,
as well as Verifying and debugging mixed-signal designs from Sandwork Design,
and Unified electronics development system is upgraded from Altium.
