I am new to the tool, and I am being blind with this new assignment.

1. I want to design a 4 layer board (RF for 50e imp matching on three tracks: basically a SMA input).

2. We will be using a rogers material (RO4000) with the thickness given as 10 mils(0.254mm).

3. metal01>>rogers core>>metal02>>prepeg>>metal03>>fr4 core>>metal04.

4.total thickness of the board0.062in/1.6mm with 1oz of cu on top and bottom metal and 1/2 oz inner metals.

5. How to setup for design, stack up design and values.  Your precious advice need and appreciated.

Am already working on the design and am half way stuck after netlist generation.
