This was a great presentation. It was more informative than my bachelor's

[arts]

Ronde-Schwarz Holds clearly and well informed presentations regarding SI

[SalahuddinTariq]

Excellent video ! Great for learning. This is how technical concepts should be delivered.

[ayrendraganas]

superb content. as someone who wants to learn this stuff on his own this feels like a great introduction!

[semiconductorschematicdesign]

This is one of the best explanation on the fundamentals of Signal Integrity overview and details. Thanks

[Jibaren]

Wish I saw this video earlier, this explaination links up every fragment infromation I learn about SI, now I finally get to see more about the whole picture

[JackQuark]

A very good presentation. Learnt basic concepts visually.

[thomasdanuch]

Paul, you are simply the best! I realy enjoy your kind of presentation and your abillity to explain complex circumstances. Stay well!

[nabilhoudali]

Very clearly presentation, thanks. That shows how we can explain simply a complex phenomenon

[SAhellenLily]

Super explaination!Serdes circuit(eye diagram）

[angrygamer]

great introduction video. really appreciate it.

Hi R&S team,

Could you please put the demonstration of the FSMR3000 up on your YouTube channel? The stream on your website is almost unwatchable, even on a good connection.

[technicaltransistor]

sir, nice video. which tool you make these waveform.

How can I find crosstalk between AC planes and traces?
