A sunny September day. Heather Smithson, a senior MI5 controller, has a dilemma. Her job is on the line. She pauses in the sunshine to brood on recent events and what they mean in her life. Seattle, Genoa, New York: What is the battleground? Who is the enemy? Hyperlynx was performed as a one act rehearsed reading at the Edinburgh Festival in August 2001. Its grim premonition of the terrorist activity of September 11th, necessitated that John McGrath wrote a second act. He completed the play in November before his death in January 2002. Hyperlynx was the winner of the Fringe First Award, Edinburgh 2002

Presents a range of CAD algorithms and techniques for synthesizing and optimizing interconnect Provides insight & intuition into layout analysis and optimization for interconnect in high speed, high complexity integrated circuits

An advanced reference documenting, in detail, every step of a real System-in-Package (SiP) design flow Written by an engineer at the leading edge of SiP design and implementation, this book demonstrates how to design SiPs using Mentor EE Flow. Key topics covered include wire bonding, die stacks, cavity, flip chip and RDL (redistribution layer), Embedded Passive, RF design, concurrent design, Xtreme design, 3D real-time DRC (design rule checking), and SiP manufacture. Extensively illustrated throughout, System in Package Design and Simulation covers an array of issues of vital concern for SiP design and fabrication electronics engineers, as well as SiP users, including: Cavity and sacked dies design FlipChip and RDL design Routing and coppering 3D Real-Time DRC check SiP simulation technology Mentor SiP Design and Simulation Platform Designed to function equally well as a reference, tutorial, and self-study, System in Package Design and Simulation is an indispensable working resource for every SiP designer, especially those who use Mentor design tools.

Based on over twenty years of hands-on experience with electromagnetic interference (EMI), Digital Design for Interference Specifications provides circuit designers concrete rules that can be applied immediately to the design of new digital products. The authors' techniques emphasize EMI source suppression at the printed circuit board level and considers shielding only as a last resort. The material is written in a how-to format with brief qualitative explanations of why or how design recommendations suppress emissions or reduce susceptibility. The described approaches toward design and prevention of EMI will save manufacturers time, product cost, and enhance manufacturability. Best of all, designers will not have to be EMI gurus to implement these processes but they will definitely look like experts when the final outcome is assessed. Digital Design for Interference Specifications is a very well written book targeted directly toward circuit designers and EMI professionals. The authors built a consulting company out of the knowledge presented in the book working with a huge list of clients over the years. The material is written to directly apply to circuit designers' projects helping them save money and time on each design. The book is heavily and clearly illustrated. A practical, hands-on guide to EMI suppression and prevention. Written by circuit designers for use by circuit designers. Heavily illustrated and easy to read.

This book is a comprehensive SiP design guide book. It is divided into three parts: concept and technology, design and simulation, project and case, for a total of 30 chapters. In Part one, the author proposes some new original concepts and thoughts, such as Function Density Law,Si3P and 4D integration. Part one also covers the latest technology of SiP and Advanced Packaging. Part two covers the latest SiP and Advanced Packaging design and simulation technologies, such as wire bonding, multi-step cavity, chip stacking, 2.5D TSV, 3D TSV, RDL, Fan- In, Fan-Out, Flip Chip, Embedded Passive, Embedded Chip, RF design, Rigid-Flex design, 4D SiP design, Multi-layout project and Team design, as well as SI, PI, thermal simulation, electrical verification and physical verification. Based on a real design case, part three introduces the design, simulation and implementation methods of different types of SiP, which has a -important reference significance for the research and development of SiP projects. This book comprehensively and deeply expounds the latest development, design ideas and design methods of contemporary SiP technology from three aspects: concept and technology, design and simulation, project and case. Through the detailed introduction of new concepts, design methods, actual projects and cases, this book describes the whole process of SiP products from the beginning of conception to the final realization and makes readers benefit from it.

20-year-old Lexi Sobado is a woman with a psychic gift caught in the middle of a sinister web of crime and corruption. The victim of a stalker, Lexi finds herself romantically entangled with the special agent charged with protecting her. Thing is, Lexi herself has worked for the intelligence community in the past. What she hides, what she reveals and what she keeps trying to uncover become the juggling act our heroine deals with as she tries to save her own life and stop the killer.
