    TeamAllegro
    TeamAllegro
    为何要刚柔结合? 对几乎所有应用,客户一直希望能有更小、更轻、性价比更高的产品。竞争压力也促使设计工程师们以不断增长的速度将这些新产品带到市场。设计工程师们可使用柔性PCB材料(柔性/刚柔结合)来满足小型化需求、代替连接器,以提高产品性能。 (点击查看大图) 有哪些新技术可支持刚柔结合设计? 制造商对设计的进一步要求已准备好,如在柔性衬底上实现元件安装,支持多层柔性板以缩小尺寸,并提高高速性能。 从第一次成功开始 为了节省时间和成本,必须要尽早与制造商合作,来为您的刚柔结合PCB建立关于性能...

    One animation video - Patch Like The Wind -  is worth a thousand words :)

    If you don’t use Specman or don’t use Specman correctly, you spend most of your time waiting for compilation to finish.

    One of the most frustrating (and common…) scenarios is when you know more or less what the fix should be (such as, “wait additional cycle before sending” or “the variable should be int and not uint”) and the fix can…
