What is Signal and Power Integrity in Digital Systems and How is it Changing Our World

This presentation will describe the latest challenges in transmitting electronic information at ever faster speeds while at the same time reducing the power consumed. This exciting new area of engineering is called Signal Integrity and Power Integrity. Signal Integrity enables today's computers to send trillions of ones and zeroes in a matter of seconds along a physical channel to a receiver. Power Integrity ensures that no matter how fast and how many ones and zeroes are switching they will all get enough power to switch states. A final example will show how this new area of engineering could have prevented the failure of the first transatlantic telegraph cable in 1865 and how far we have come since then.
