As smartphones evolve toward thinner, lighter designs with higher performance, multi-camera systems, 5G connectivity, and AI computing capabilities, the level of integration within their internal electronic systems continues to rise.
As AI computing power continues to extend toward the edge, workstations, and data centers, the demands placed on PCBs by GPUs, NPUs, AI accelerator cards, high-speed network modules, and edge inference devices have grown significantly.
Testing the communication between an FPGA and an SD card serves not only to verify data read/write functionality but also acts as a critical method for evaluating digital interface timing, power integrity, PCB routing quality, and the reliability of the electronic assembly.
