Electronic TrendsElectronic Systems drive toward smaller, faster, higher power,

higher complexity, and higher density.• RF, digital, data conversion, and high-performance DSP on single

platform• Switching power supplies at high frequency

Consumer market driving unit growth.• Increasing demand volatility• Shorter product life cycles• Extreme price sensitivity.

Applications: Signaling Standards

Standard interfaces• DDR3, PCI Express,

HDMI, SATA, USB 3

Serial rates of 3 to 10 Gb/s point-to-point serial buses.

This requires reliable signal transmission across a host board or between daughter cards on a backplane at GHz speeds.

The Fundamental High Speed Challenge

-

Clean, open, logical 1 & 0 at launch from transmitter

Smeared edges at end of long interconnect.

Logical 1 & 0 can be hard to distinguish at end of long interconnects; (this is often called a “closed eye”)

Fast, sharp, edges at transmitter launch

We want to get digital 1’s and 0’s from transmitter to receiver.However, the channel over which this occurs is a low pass filter.

Solver on Demand: An ECAD Interface for HFSS

Problem Description:1. Converting package and printed circuit board layout

data to 3D mechanical CAD models creates a large amount of unnecessary overhead in the geometry database

2. A key capability needed for wide-spread use of HFSS as an extraction tool is to make it accessible to non experts

Solution:3. When HFSS is used for package and PCB extraction a

2D Electrical CAD layout editor is better suited for model creation and setup

4. The Designer Layout editor with Solver on Demand improves HFSS accessibility for non-expert engineers who need to use HFSS for package and PCB extraction

– It provides an EMI solution for 2 layer pkg and board design with HFSS and PlanarEM

5. The Designer Layout editor with Solver on Demand significantly reduces the engineering time required to set up package and pcb models for extraction with HFSS

6. Cadence design flows allows a user to solve with HFSS from within the Cadence environment using Cadence Extracta and an IPC link

DDR3 Solutions: Signal Net Analyzer

• Displays Z0, length, time delay, and reference layer• All possible paths (from each pin to every other pin on net)

are displayed– Sorted in descending order of path distance

• User can click on an individual path in the table– Variation in Z0 is graphically displayed

– Path is highlighted in SIwave’s main layout window

• Ideal reference layer mode (default)– Traces on top & bottom metal layers are assumed to be

microstrips

– Interior traces are assumed to be striplines

• Non-ideal reference layer mode– Reference layer is explicitly calculated for each trace segment

– Some traces may be floating (no suitable reference layer available)

Vendor Libraries

Design Engineers require accurate electrical models for components when designing circuits

A key feature of the web based library support is ease of use. Library installation generally requires users to download files, uncompress them and place them in the correct location on a local drive.

Automated web based download from within Designer automates these steps, making it easy for users to keep their component libraries up to date.

Design Kits • DDR3, PCIe 3.0, HDMI , SATA, SAS, …

Scripting Libraries

• FWS commands, Footprinting, Reporting Templates, …

Desktop supports fixed variables

• Solution database is NOT indexed by these variables

• User will not sweep them• Any change to these

variables invalidate existing solutions

Benefits• Faster access to solution

database– Faster post-processing

• Improved reporter-dialog response

• Via Wizard generated project with 746 variables– Only one variable, called Pad, is

swept in a parametric setup– Turn off “Sweep” checkbox for all

variables except Pad
