HSD in PathWave ADS class
COURSE OVERVIEW

You will learn:

  • How to start with ADS & understand the basics, covering workspaces, libraries, cells and technologies.
  • How to use layout in ADS & perform some basics operations
  • How to deal with pre-layout phase for SI/HSD designers in ADS
  • How to use Channel simulator with IBIS-AMI.
  • How to setup simulations with SIPro and PiPro (analysis capabilities).
  • How to tune the HSD application to characterize the behavior of real-world PCB designs imported into ADS


Course Type: User/Application Training.

Audience: Designers interested in understanding how to design pre-layout with ADS, to use Channel Simulation, IBIS-AMI models, to import board from other PCB tools and to analyze in ADS in post-layout phase with electromagnetic models (EM model).

This training class is designed primarily for SI/PI/HSD engineers experience with the Advanced Design System but not required.

Prerequisites: Good understanding of time-domain simulation.

Course Length: 3 days.

Course Format: The course combines lecture presentations with instructor guided hands-on sessions. Participants will have the opportunity to perform exercises in ADS.

Location: Online

Agenda:

6 June 2023, 9am - 5pm CET: Introduction to ADS

Introduction to ADS environment
  • create an L-C ladder segment, parameterize it, convert it to a transmission line model by copy step/repeat.
  • Use the analytical results for TL’s, compute Z0/beta and demonstrate behavior of this ideal line vs. frequency and then in time-domain using a transient analysis with a bit sequence.
  • learn how to create schematics, data display for freq/time domains, tuning, parameterization.
  • introduce distributed components as multilayer/microstrip/striplines, and concept of impedance mismatch
Basics of layout
  • WYSIWYG vs. net-based mode, technology files, ODB++ import, navigator, how to define net names (Lab with Panda Board)

7 June 2023, 9am - 5pm CET: The Channel

Designing Pre-layout for PCB Constraints
Interconnect Utility Tools to Build the Channel:
  • Line characterization
  • Using and understanding the ADS multilayer library.
  • Via Designer
  • The SnP component and S-parameter Checker
HSD Simulation
Use the Pre-layout Schematic to build the channel
  • Transient Simulation using IBIS Models
  • Channel Simulation including Ibis AMI Model (Lecture about IBIS-AMI and why you need it).
  • Mix and Match in Channel Sim: Use build in ADS TX with an AMI RX and vice-versa.
  • NRZ and PAM4 signal to Channel Simulation.
*Add EESOF PAM-4 IBIS-AMI Models to Channels Simulation * if requested


8 June 2023, 9am - 5pm CET: SIPro - PIPro + DC IR Drop Electro Thermal

SIPro
  • BRD/ODB Import
