Xpeedic: SnpExpert – S Parameter Exploration

Xpeedic SnpExpert provides a quick way to understand the electrical characteristics of passive interconnectors in a system by viewing the S-parameter in frequency domain and examining the time domain reflectometry (TDR). One-click definition of differential pairs and victim / aggressor setup, together with the built-in NEXT, FEXT, PSXT, ILD, ICR, and ICN, allows user to quickly evaluate the crosstalk.

Key Features

• One-click to define differential pairs and victim / aggressor pairs
• Built-in compliance metrics, such as IEEE802.3, OIF CEI etc.
• Built-in template plot for RF components
• Built-in Thru-Only De-embedding (TOD)
• Built-in Open-Short / Thru De-embedding (OTD) method for on-chip de-embedding
• Built-in delay & skew calculator
• Support multiple data curves gating with only one click and export S-parameter
• Built-in RLGC solver for transmission lines
• Multi-ways to extract Dk / Df from S-parameter file
• Built-in passivity / causality / reciprocity / stability checker
• Support to convert S-parameter to broad band spice or Hspice RFM model
• Support S->RLGC, RLGC->S, S->W-element transformation
• Support complex numbers for S-parameter
• Support to combine multiple s4p files to one snp
• Support for Touchstone 2.0
• Support Python script to invoke most SnpExpert features, including S-parameter import, plot, add mark, TDR, TOD and so on
• Easy to generate report in MS Word and PPT format
