Frequently Asked Questions
Why is planar capacitance important for high-speed design?
At high frequencies, the inductance of discrete capacitor leads and traces becomes significant, making them less effective. Planar capacitance, formed by closely spaced power and ground planes, has extremely low inductance, making it an ideal “built-in” capacitor for filtering very high-frequency noise directly at the source.
Can planar capacitance replace all my decoupling capacitors?
Not entirely. Planar capacitance is excellent for very high-frequency noise (typically >500MHz) but provides relatively low bulk capacitance. It should be used as part of a complete decoupling strategy, in conjunction with discrete bulk and ceramic capacitors, to provide a low impedance power path across the entire frequency spectrum.
What kind of placement assistance is provided?
We offer comprehensive placement support including resume building, mock interviews with industry experts, and exclusive access to our network of over 200 hiring partners in the hardware and electronics industry. Our goal is to not just teach you, but to ensure you land your dream job.
