Sigrity – Tip of the day – How to define a cable model in Topology Workbench

The performance of cables needs to be evaluated for better communication between the boards. However, modelling a cable is challenging since the specifications of the cable must be applied carefully. Hence, the simulation tool’s capability to include cable definition is essential for evaluating the channel performance.

In Topology Workbench, you can define cable models for transient or channel simulations. Both Twisted-Pair Cable and Coaxial Cable are supported. You can test the defined cable performance using the Transmitter and Receiver blocks available with the tool.

How do you include cables in your simulation?

Share your inputs on how you model the cables in your simulation.
