Setting Up for Substrate Coupling Analysis

RFStuff

 Dear All,

I was going through Substrate Coupling Analysis User Guide.


it has been recommended as :-

 
 Note: If you want to use SCA in your RF design flow you are advised to take the Cadence
SpectreRF/SCA training class. The training materials contain an RF demo circuit and a Diva
rule deck that contains special rules for SCA and illustrates a simulation with SpectreRF.

Can I get this training material or is there any other material which can help in this regard.

Kind Regards,

    I am confused between PVE and EXT.

    Could you please explain this  ?

    After installing >EXT I am able to find QRC menu in Virtuso Layout editor.

    But I am not able to find Substrate Analysis menu.

    But in Assura , I am able to see  Substrate Analysis menu. But due to some reason, while clicking on this menu I am seeing some errors. I have filed a SR.

    However, for Substrate analysis using QRC, is ASSURA only needed ?

    I use calibre. I think all RC extraction process techfiles needed by Calibre can be fed to QRC by some mechanism. But for Substrate analysis is there any simple way existing ?

    Could please give your comment on these ?

    Kind Regards,
