Tired of waiting for your SPICE simulations to complete?
My colleague Rick Poore will be presenting IEEE Custom Integrated Circuits Conference (CICC) paper 20-3 about his work on &#8220;GPU-Accelerated Time-Domain Circuit Simulation&#8221; in San Jose at 11:05AM on Wednesday, September 16th.

The concept of a geometric form factor is very useful when thinking about transmission lines. It bundles up all the messy 2D geometry of cross-sections and field line patterns into one scalar quantity that is fixed for a particular configuration. Then you can think about the general concepts without getting bogged down [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=chip2chip.wordpress.com&blog=3838241&post=62&subd=chip2chip&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

My hope for this straw poll is that we can form a collective opinion about upcoming conferences. Vote for your favorites then see the tally so far in real time. It isn’t scientific, but I think it will give a good feel for the answer.
