Dear Colleagues,

Signal and power integrity (SI/PI) are essential and interlaced aspects of contemporary advanced digital and hybrid electronic system design. The correct and effective use of their rules sets not negligible challenges to design engineers in a broad range of theoretical and practical issues: the understanding of the physical mechanisms associated to the flow of currents and the delivery of electric power at the extremely high harmonics of the digital signals; the behavior of electric-to-optical (and their reverse) interfaces; the electrical behavior and modeling of the conductor, organic (inorganic) substrate or semiconductor materials; and the identification of proper figures of merit for a signal channel quantification, to name but a few examples.

The paradigm of the Artificial Intelligence and its applications to improve the quality of signals and electric power at board, package, and also die level have opened up wide fields in the research in signal and power integrity.

This Special Issue wishes to offer the opportunity to engineers and scientists to exchange state-of-the-art developments in the field of signal and power integrity applied to any kind of high-speed circuit and system, to the modeling, design, validation, and testing of electronic hardware. The topics span from the theory, algorithms, and methods to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and optimization of signal and power integrity simulations to practical applications, innovative tools, prototypes, measurement approaches, and sensors that help and support the correct and advanced SI/PI design of electronic systems and components.

You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Electronics.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Signals is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
