4. Enter some values that would work for your design calculations (e.g., not allowing traces that are 0.1016 mm / 4 mils apart to traverse more than 5.08 mm / 200 mils together). Click OK. 5. With the constraint set values set, apply the constraint set by going to the Electrical > Net > Routing > Wiring worksheet. 6. Click one of the applicable nets (e.g., PCIE0_CLKREQ), then apply the constraint set (in this case NVEC1_1_PCIE0_ CLK_) Reason: Signal Integrity constraints are crucial for maintaining data integrity, especially in high-speed designs where signals are more susceptible to degradation and interference. Impact on the Board: f Reduces signal distortion and data errors f Improves overall system reliability and performance f May influence trace routing, layer stack-up, and component placement decisions f This can lead to more complex design rules and potentially increased PCB manufacturing costs By implementing proper Signal Integrity constraints, designers can ensure that their PCBs maintain signal quality and minimize interference, resulting in more reliable and higher-performing electronic products. 7 www.cadence.com OrCAD X Constraint Management Guide
