Signal integrity verification at 10GHz

Pavel47

Hello,

Is Allegro PCB SI (or some other tool from 16.5) capable to check signal integrity of a complex board at 10GHz ?

Or one should export the board file to HyperLynx and check SI with the last one ?

Thanks in advance.

Pavel.

    Tutorial - Ok. Sorry, I was inattentive.

  • Dennis Nagle

     Yes, you will request the IBIS model from Altera. 

  • Pavel47

    I've just got to know, that Altium (which also has SI option) can't simulate VIAs.

    Is it the case also for Allegro SI ?

    One more question - Molex provide for their connectors only S-parameter models.

    Can one use them for SI simulation ?

    Thanks in advance.

    Pavel.

     Yes, PCB SI can handle vias. It can also generate S-paramters and make use of them as modelsin simulations.

     Regards,

    Ok. good news !

    Here I didn't clearly understand what you mean. Which data (info)PCB SI will use to generate S-parameters for a particular connector. S-parameters come from measurements... Or i missed something ?

    Regards.

    Pavel.
