High Speed Digital Design: A Handbook of Black Magic
Description Focusing on acombination of digital and analog circuit theory, thiscomprehensive volume will help engineers who work with digitalsystems, shorten their product development cycles, and fix theirlatest high-speed design problems. For Sale in Indiansubcontinent only Covers signal reflection, crosstalk, and noise problems that occur in high-speed digtal machines (above 10 megahertz). lncludes checklists that ask the questions an experienced designer would about a new system. Offers useful formulas for inductance, capacitance, resistance, rise time, and Q. Explains the trade-offs between signal cross talk, mechanical fabrication of tolerances, and trace routing density. Presents a methodology for determining how many layrs will be required to route a printed circuit board.

This is a well-organized book full of great information. It's easy to skim through it and and get an idea of basic design theory for high speed circuits. It's also pretty easy to dig in deeper and use the book to help diagnose problems in circuits.

There is some interesting information in this book, but it's usage of imperial units is highly annoying.

High Speed Digital Design is a mandatory book for all high speed PCB layout. It has all the relevant formulas in one place and they are explained with great clarity. There are several great examples that show the reader how to apply the science. I have had this book for 20 years and i still use it often.

I refer to this book frequently. Johnson provides good explanations of a lot of topics that most EEs consider "voodoo," as well as guidelines for avoiding and dealing with them.

Lots of practical advice and suggestions. Get through the front matter and the back of the book is worthwhile.

Must read for High Speed design engineers, a collective knowledge-base for design strategies.

I paired this book along with Henry Ott's book on EMC. These two books sit side-by-side on my shelf and together are a formidable resource.
