Increasing data rates, denser systems and shrinking product footprints challenge designers to meet their system signal integrity needs.

Samtec’s Silicon-to-Silicon™ System Optimization capabilities provide engineers the service, products, tools and resources to optimize the entire signal chain of a system, from bare die to IC package and assembly, to PCB, to connectors and cable assemblies, and back again.

Gaining access to all of these capabilities can be daunting for those not familiar with Samtec.

In an effort to simplify the technology selection process, Samtec has launched a dedicated Silicon-to-Silicon™ System Optimization microsite.

Targeted and built specifically for electrical engineers, this new solution from Samtec enables designers to easily identify the appropriate interconnect technology or Silicon-to-Silicon™ System Optimization capabilities meeting their engineering requirements.

Microsite users can quickly gain access to a variety of features, shown below.

Silicon-to-Silicon™ System Optimization Capabilities

The microsite assists designers in optimizing the high-speed serial path from bare die, to IC package and assembly, to PCB, to connectors and cable assemblies, and back again.

These capabilities include:

  • Assisting IC layout designers to optimize power and signal integrity of the bare die during the IC design process
  • Developing complex, customized IC packaging and assembly solutions enabling maximum IC density, precision and ruggedness
  • Enabling PCB designers to create denser, faster PCBs by providing factory and field-based technical support to ensure signal chain optimization
  • Providing the products, tools, design expertise and consulting services to link high-speed signal chains between PCBs and through backplanes
  • Engineering industry standand and customized copper and optical cable assemblies at data rates up to 28Gbps and beyond

This area of the site allows you to take a deep dive through each area of our technology road map, such as Twinax Flyover system optimization.
