Signal Integrity simulation of socket contactors using CST MWS Take advantage of the low cost SI simulation offered by Ironwood Electronics

Impedance mismatch in contacts in test sockets can affect the signal integrity (SI) performance when testing high-speed semiconductor ICs. This discontinuity is mainly caused by mechanical features in interconnects/contactors that may result in impedance change. The signal integrity analysis of
