PIPro provides complete power integrity (PI) analysis of your power distribution network (PDN). PIPro Power Integrity EM Analysis Element SIPro provides signal integrity (SI) analysis of complex high-speed PCBs, enabling you to characterize loss and coupling of signal nets, and ultimately extract an EM-accurate model that can be used in the ADS Transient and Channel Simulators. SIPro Signal Integrity EM Analysis Element
SPECTRE RF TOOLBOX SIMULATOR
The Interconnect Toolbox Element enables you to optimize your PCB stack up and design transmission line geometry. It also provides a high accuracy via design simulator which helps you to design a parameterized, impedance-matched via transition (single-ended and differential).Ĭomprehensive physical design environment specifically geared for high-frequency circuit development, including artwork import/export for ODB++, DXF, Gerber/drill, IGES and GDS-II formats. Transient Convolution and Channel Simulation ElementĪdvanced time-domain Element that includes Transient Simulator (SPICE transient analysis including HSPICE and Spectre compatibility modes), IBIS Model Library, Convolution Simulator (creates time-domain models from frequency domain data), Channel Simulator (includes bit-by-bit and statistical modes, eye diagrams and BER contours, IBIS AMI). Fast linear simulation, comprehensive filter and passive circuit synthesis. Provides essential RF and microwave design capabilities in a highly productive enterprise schematic design environment. The ADS Memory Designer Bundle consists of ADS Core, TransConv, Channel, IT, Layout, SIPro, PIPro, and Memory Designer as shown in the table below.

SPECTRE RF TOOLBOX VERIFICATION
Offering a unique capability to use the same measurement science for both simulation and hardware verification stages, finally simulation to measurement comparison is made easy. Keysight’s new PathWave ADS Memory Designer workflow minimizes the engineering effort required to setup, extract EM models, simulate the buses, and perform compliance testing. The designer needs to have confidence they can optimize the channel design and pass the Receiver Mask Tests at ultra-low Bit Error Rates (BERs). As we move to DDR4 and now into DDR5, random jitter, crosstalk and equalization become much more critical.

New strobed-eye diagrams and skew measurements.New Memory Probe to set up measurements by group, with intelligent selection of signal references.DDR Bus simulator to characterize signal integrity, capturing margin-to-mask tests down to ultra-low BERs.Automated wiring connections, utilizing DDR Signal IDs found in the layout design.IBIS files can be applied ‘per device’ giving faster setup and parameterization of settings for groups of signals.Dramatically reduce setup time with new components for easy setup of controller, PCB, connectors, terminations and memory.The PathWave ADS Memory Designer Bundle includes the following key features and capabilities:
