The Pacific Daily News, formerly Guam Daily News, is the longest serving news organization on Guam. We are based in Hagåtña, in the United States territory of Guam. On March 31, 2023, the Pacific Daily News printed its last physical print newspaper edition and is now fully digital. The Pacific Daily News started its local ownership in 1949, when former Gov. Joseph Flores bought the Guam News from the Navy. Flores then named the newspaper the Guam Daily News. In 1971, the newspaper was purchased by a Honolulu Group, then subsequently bought in the same year by Gannett Inc., and named the Pacific Daily News. The paper returned to local ownership in April 2021 when former lieutenant governor, senator, and local businessman Kaleo Moylan purchased the Pacific Daily News from subsidiaries of the Gannett Company. Moylan's acquisition of the Pacific Daily News returned the media company to local ownership after 50 years of ownership by Gannett. The Pacific Daily News has evolved into a full digital media provider. You can find all you need on our website, e-edition and social media pages. We also provide a complete range of digital marketing services from banner advertising positions on PDN digital platforms, Branded Content/Video, Social Media Ads and Management, YouTube and Google Marketing and Website creation and maintenance. The Pacific Daily News continues its legacy of local leadership and philanthropy in its long-standing support of many local organizations and community causes, as well as its high standards and ethical practices in journalism.

The practical performance of a PCB design layout depends on a multitude of factors, many of which can be predicted, to a reasonable degree, through a range of PCB design analysis tools such as post-layout Signal Integrity analysis. What's often neglected however, or simply relegated to a 'rule of thumb' methodology, is developing the most effective layout design for board's DC Power Delivery systems. This is the judgment applied to the design of a board's copper areas that provide both the DC supply rails to the circuitry, and their ground or common return path to the DC supply source. The desired outcome is an efficient design that maintains the integrity of the design's DC power layout.With modern digital designs featuring high-speed circuitry, multiple devices, densely populated boards and multiple supply rails, the demands placed on a design's DC power distribution network warrants a more analytical approach to its design. The DC analysis of a Power Delivery Network (PDN), or the results of its DC Power Integrity (PI-DC), is basically aimed at ensuring that adequate copper has been provided in the path from the voltage sources to the loads – in other words, that the planes, traces and vias on the board are of sufficient size (and characteristics) to meet the power consumption requirements of the devices on the board.Fortunately, the guesswork can be removed from the assessment of a PCB's power delivery network (PDN) through the use of a DC Power Integrity (PI-DC) simulation tool, which analyzes a board design's DC performance based on its electrical and physical properties. Such a tool is now available for Altium Designer as the Altium PDN Analyzer powered by CST® (Computer Simulation Technology).Provided as a downloadable Altium Extension application, the PDN Analyzer integrates directly with Altium Designer to allow PI-DC simulation and analysis of the current PCB project. Since the PDN Analyzer functions within Altium Designer there are no manual data import/export requirements, data conversions or separate applications to be run – simply start the PDN Analyzer from the Schematic or PCB editor, set the desired test parameters and run the simulation. The results are primarily delivered through 2D/3D modeling of the circuit board copper layout, allowing a quick assessment of the results and the opportunity to perform exploratory 'what if' testing of the PCB layout design.

More compact layout. Integrated batch analysis. Support for increased network complexity. Detailed simulation results tables, including power reporting.

Form factor. The Altium PDN Analyzer provides accurate information about a design’s DC power distribution suitability in an easy-to-use and straightforward manner to enable designers to make the most efficient power distribution designs possible.Not only are the results suitable for final design verification, but they can also be used in the planning stages of a design to architect power delivery as efficiently as possible in advance. PI-DC is an invaluable tool in achieving the most efficient and robust power delivery network possible, the PDN Analyzer makes running that simulation and analysis process straightforward, intuitive and efficient.Among these and other advantages that the PDN Analyzer brings to your PCB designs, it also delivers the following benefits: Product reliability: Helps to ensure the correct performance of individual supplies within the design, in terms of standing voltage levels, voltage stability, and trace heating/damage. Improved PCB layout: Provides information that can be applied in creating the most effective use of board space, and allows the easy identification and correction of problematic high current density areas. Knowledge: No longer rely on a rule of thumb approach or approximate calculations when considering the layout of DC current paths.PDN Analyzer simulationIn its most very basic form, a board layout that will be subject to PI-DC analysis might be composed of a Voltage Regulator source and its load, with interconnecting copper areas of various shapes and track widths. A base circuit example of a power source and load. The base circuit's PCB layout, with a range of copper shapes and traces connected by layers and vias.The PDN Analyzer panel interface (Tools » PDN Analyzer) visually emulates a Power Source to Load circuit net that incorporates tangible Power and Ground paths – much as shown in the above circuit and also the conceptual block diagram (Fig. 1). The application automatically extracts all physical and electrical information (netlist, devices and layer shapes, etc) from the currently active PCB design, which provides data for the PI-DC simulation engine. The PDN Analyzer panel interface showing a PI simulation setup for the basic circuit and board layout.Here, the voltage source is the output of U1 (5V between pins 3 and 2), and the load is a specified current through RL (0.1A). Once the initial parameters have been entered via the interface (source/load voltages and currents, etc) and the simulation has been run, the resulting analysis data is graphically modeled in the PCB editor as a rendered 2D or 3D image. The Voltage Drop simulation results for the board's PWR and GND nets copper (U1 to RL, and RL to U1).The PDN Analyzer PI simulation can be set to show Voltage (IR Drop, above image) or Current Density (below image) results for all applicable board layers.
