Signal Integrity Features

Signal Integrity Features

As Windows based PCB design tools become more and more sophisticated and are used to design
printed circuit boards with high clock speeds and high density, the demand for simulation tools
addressing signal integrity problems has increased dramatically.
P-CAD Signal Integrity has been created specially for PCB designers using the P-CAD PCB tool, and
is tightly coupled to the PCB to provide a simple interactive simulation environment. Using P-CAD
Signal Integrity, design engineers may check their multilayer boards for noise effects like ringing
and crosstalk. When installed, P-CAD Signal Integrity is seamlessly integrated with P-CAD PCB,
giving you the familiarity of P-CAD PCB's Windows interface standard and easy access to its
powerful capabilities.
P-CAD Signal Integrity is based on a Fast Reflection and Crosstalk Simulator, which produces very
accurate simulations, (provided that full model information is available), with algorithms proven in
industry.
The P-CAD Signal Integrity simulator uses the characteristic impedance of the traces calculated
through a transmission line calculator and I/O buffer macro-model information as input for the
simulations. Where model information is not available the system utilizes fallback models.

Features

Provides fast simulation of reflection and crosstalk effects.

Fast screening (pre-analysis) for signal integrity effects (over- and undershoot, delay, etc.) for
entire boards with spreadsheet-like result display.

Seamlessly integrated with P-CAD PCB, allowing access to simulation options.

No special expertise is required to use it, due to the simple user interface and tight integration.

As the system utilizes I/O buffer macro-models, no knowledge of SPICE or analogue simulation
is required.

Oscilloscope type display of simulation results with integrated result measurement facilities.

Well-proven algorithms for the calculation of the transmission line characteristics and
subsequent simulations.

What-if-analysis concerning different termination strategies with parametric values of

resistors/capacitors and through easy substitution of macro-models.

What-if-analysis concerning different routing strategies through tight integration with P-CAD
PCB.

Software I/O Buffer Modeling

Macro-model approach for fast and accurate simulation.

Supplied with a basic IC model library including verified models.

Automatic model attachment according to Part Number.

P-CAD Signal Integrity Users Guide

Signal Integrity Features

Chapter 1: Introduction to P-CAD Signal Integrity

Supporting the IBIS 3 industry standard sub-set for I/O buffer modeling.

Integrated macro-model-editor allows easy and fast definition of own models using databook
or measurement values.

P-CAD Signal Integrity utilizes the P-CAD PCB, DBX API interface for interactive
communications.

P-CAD Signal Integrity can be loaded with complete PCBs or subsets of data (single or multiple
nets, single layers, etc.).

P-CAD Signal Integrity supports cross highlighting with the layout (nets under analysis).

P-CAD Signal Integrity can provide an INCASES EMC-WORKBENCH SULTAN file for extended
EMC analysis.

P-CAD Signal Integrity can back annotate termination networks onto the board as a DRC
marker.

P-CAD Signal Integrity and Xtalk are designed for analyzing PCBs with consistent power and/or
ground planes. Use of the tools on boards without consistent power or ground planes will lead
to untrustworthy results.

User Interface
There are three basic operational screens for P-CAD Signal Integrity: the net screen, the preanalysis screen and the result screen. The net screen and the result screen can be utilized
simultaneously.

Chapter 3: P-CAD Signal Integrity Tutorial

Review and Complete your PCB Design Parameters

Select the component C1 in the Component list. Note that the Category is already set to Capacitor.
If it was not, you would choose the type Capacitor in the Category drop down list. Confirm that all
other capacitors have their Category set to Capacitor.
In the same way confirm that the components D1 and D2 are set to Diode, J1 is set to Connector,
R1, R2 and R3 are set to Resistor, and U1 to U9 are set to IC.
With the button To Database you can save the specified component type back to the PCB currently
open in P-CAD PCB. The information is saved in the PCB as a component attribute.
A second way to specify the component type is to define a component attribute directly in P-CAD
PCB. Define the Component attribute Category, and set the value of the attribute to one of the
following qualifiers. If you now load the design into P-CAD Signal Integrity, the components will
have their Category already defined (as in the demo file).

Edit Nets
Although Supply Nets can not be simulated, they are necessary for the correct simulation of nets
with Pull-up or Pull-down components.
To access the Edit Nets dialog, click on Edit on the Menu bar and choose Nets from the pull-down
menu.

The Edit Nets dialog contains the names of all nets in the active design. You can select individual or
multiple nets in the list box. Once selected you can specify the category and the voltage of the net.
Select the net VCC in the net list box, choose the category Supply in the Category drop down list,
enter 5V as the Value and click the Apply button for the changes to take place. In the same way set
the category Supply and the value 5V for the nets VCC, VCC1, VCC2 and VCC3.
With the button To Database you can save the specified net category and value to your P-CAD PCB.
The information is saved in the PCB as net attributes.
A second way to specify the net category and value is to define net attributes directly in P-CAD PCB.
Define the net attribute Category and set the value of the attribute to Supply, and the net attribute
Voltage and set the value to the voltage of the net. If you now load the design into P-CAD Signal
Integrity, the nets get the defined category and value.

Edit Layer Stack

For the calculation of the correct electrical behavior of the traces, the layer stack of the PCB must
be specified.
The required parameter definitions and their applicable default values are listed below:

The layer stack and all associated transmission line parameters are automatically saved in a layer
stack information file. The file is named as the same as the PCB, with the extension .TDB. It is saved
into a folder with the same name as the PCB, under the Projects folder. For example, for the demo
board it is \P-CAD 2002\Projects\Demo\Demo.tdb.
Before a new transmission line parameter is calculated, the system checks if appropriate
transmission line parameters already exist in the database file.
Whenever the layer stack is changed, the old database file gets deleted and a new one is generated.
Choose Edit on the Menu bar and select Layer Stack from the pull-down menu to access the Layer
Stack Specifications window. The signal and plane layers are displayed in the Layer Stack dialog.

This window shows the layer name, the layer type (Signal or Plane), and the layer number as
defined by the user in P-CAD PCB. Here you can modify the Dielectric and Copper property
definitions for a layer. To do so select a layer and enter the changes required in the available entry
windows.
When you enter the Copper thickness and the Dielectric value, the Dielectric referred to is the one
immediately above the Copper layer. As a result, it is not possible to enter a Dielectric value for the
top layer.

Screen the Nets

Screening provides a fast simulation of many nets to enable you to get closer information about the
nets and to identify critical nets for closer examination. Besides geometrical information, it also
provides estimated values for Signal Integrity effects (overshoot, undershoot).
When screening bi-directional nets, both directions are simulated and the worst result of each
effect is displayed.
The Screening commands can be accessed from the Simulation pull-down menu or by clicking the
Screening icon.
Click on the Screening icon to get the Screening window to display details for the currently
selected nets.

The data displayed when you enter the Screening window shows the information requested on the
last access. We will review each of the screening views and identify nets to analyze in greater detail.
The message in the comment window indicates that nets with Diodes or Transistors cannot be
analyzed by the Screening fast simulation method. These can, however be simulated using the
Reflection and Crosstalk simulation options.
First, click on all of the four results display icons, which are currently highlighted, to switch the

Default Value

The correct sequence of the layers

None

The thickness of the different copper

layers

35 m

The thickness of the dielectric

planes

0.32mm

The dielectric constant of the

= 4.8

The Layer Stack and all the calculated transmission line parameters are automatically saved as a
.tdb file. This database is stored together with the current PCB project name. It is automatically reused if the same PCB is analyzed in multiple P-CAD Signal Integrity sessions.
Rather than always re-calculating the transmission line characteristics before a new transmission
line parameter is calculated, P-CAD Signal Integrity will search its database for an existing set,
which matches its current parameters. Whenever the Layer Stack is changed, the old database file
gets deleted and a new one is generated.
Choose Layer Stack from the Edit pull-down menu and the Layer Stack dialog is displayed listing all
existing layers in your selected design in their current sequence.

P-CAD Signal Integrity Screening Commands

P-CAD Signal Integritys screening capability allows you to quickly screen a number of nets for
signal integrity and timing effects. It utilizes a very fast 2D-reflection simulator that uses a linear
representation of the IC pin behavior to achieve the high speed. It provides you with an overview
of the characteristics of the nets that are screened. Besides geometrical information it provides also
estimated values for signal integrity effects (overshoot, undershoot).
P-CAD Signal Integrity Screening should be used to determine which nets may be critical and
therefore require inspection in greater details using the Reflection simulator.
When screening bi-directional nets, both directions are simulated and the worst result of each
effect is displayed.
P-CAD Signal Integrity Screening commands can be accessed by choosing Screening from the
Simulation pull-down menu or by clicking on its icon.
When you start the Screening command, the Screening window is displayed, giving you access to
process specific icons, menus and commands.

P-CAD Signal Integrity Simulation Commands

The Simulator is designed to analyze the behavior of complex transmission line systems on printed
circuit boards. You can analyze reflections and crosstalk by simulating nets process takes into
account the characteristic impedance and phase velocity of the different segments of a net, which
is calculated from the cross-section of the PCB, as well as the input and output characteristics of the
buffers connected to this net. For Crosstalk analysis the mutual capacitance and inductance
between parallel segments of different nets are considered additionally.
The Simulation commands are accessed from the Simulation menu, which appears on the menu
bar when you enter P-CAD Signal Integrity. They deal with reviewing parameters, running
simulations and producing outputs.
The Screening command is described in Chapter 5: P-CAD Signal Integrity Screening Commands.
All other Simulation commands are discussed in this chapter.

Termination Advisor
Sometimes termination networks are a good way to prevent reflections, which become prevalent at
higher frequencies. These reflections cause noise, which degrade signal integrity and lead to
malfunction in the worst case.
Terminations are used to minimize reflection and achieve the signal integrity necessary for
successful data integrity.
The Termination Advisor allows you to test termination strategies without making physical changes
to your board, by inserting virtual terminations into the net at the location you define.
You can select from a variety of termination options to achieve an optimal PCB electrical
performance.
The Termination Advisor command can be accessed from the Simulation menu or by clicking on its
icon.
Select a Termination method out of the eight choices available. These are described below:

1.

Termination Advisor

None

No termination is applied. This is the default.

2.

Serial R

This is the serial impedance termination method.

A series resistor located at the driver output is a very effective termination technique for point-topoint connections. The value of the amplitude of the incident voltage wave is decreased. The
correctly terminated line (R1 = ZL Rout; (ZL characteristic impedance, Rout output resistance of the

buffer) shows no overshoot at the receiver. The series termination is best suited for CMOS
technologies.
The value displayed is the default value for the parameter.
3.

Parallel R to VCC

With a parallel resistor connected to VCC at the receiver (Pull-up resistor), the input is matched to
the transmission line impedance (R1 = ZL). This is a perfect termination for effects due to line
reflections, but there is a continuous flow of current through the termination resistor. This
increases power dissipation and, depending on the resistor value, leads to increased low voltage
levels, which may conflict with operation conditions specified in the component data sheets.
The values displayed are the default values for the parameters.
4. Parallel R to GND
With a parallel resistor connected to GND at the receiver (Pull-down resistor), the receiver input is
matched to the transmission line impedance. (R2 = ZL). This is a perfect termination regarding line
reflections but there is a continuous current drain through the termination resistor. This increases
power dissipation and, depending on the resistor value, leads to decreased high voltage levels,
which may conflict with operation conditions specified in the component data sheets.

P-CAD Signal Integrity Users Guide

Chapter 6: P-CAD Signal Integrity Simulation Commands

Termination Advisor

The value displayed is the default value for the parameter.

5. Parallel Rs to VCC and GND
This kind of termination, also called Thevenin termination or split termination, can be used for
TTL bus systems. With R1 R2 = ZL the termination network is well dimensioned for eliminating
transmission line reflections. However the disadvantage of this termination is the large DC current
through the resistor divider. In order to avoid violations of datasheet specifications, resistor values
should be derived carefully. In most cases a compromise between perfect match and acceptably
low current can be achieved.

72

P-CAD Signal Integrity Users Guide

Termination Advisor

Chapter 6: P-CAD Signal Integrity Simulation Commands

The values displayed are the default values for the parameters.
6. Parallel C to GND
Sometimes a capacitor to GND is used at the receiver input to reduce signal noise. A disadvantage
is that rising and falling waveforms at the receiver may become too smooth and these increases in
rise and fall times may cause timing problems.

The value displayed is the default value for the parameter.

7. Parallel R and C to GND
RC termination at the receiver input has the advantage that no DC current flows in the termination
network. When the time constant R x C is about four times the propagation delay of the
connection, the line is almost sufficiently terminated. For this rule of thumb the value of the
resistor is assumed to be equal to the characteristic impedance of the line (R2 = ZL).

Termination Advisor

The values displayed are the default values for the parameters.
8. Parallel Schottky Diodes
Schottky clamping diodes at the end of the transmission line connected to GND and / or VCC
reduce under- and overshoot at the receiver. Most input circuits of standard logic ICs contain
Schottky clamping diodes.

The value displayed is the default value for the parameter.

Set Victim Net

Chapter 6: P-CAD Signal Integrity Simulation Commands

Set Victim Net

This command is active only for Crosstalk simulations.
To set a victim net select a net from the list in the Simulation window on the Signal Integrity entry
screen and click the Set Victim Net icon, or select Set Victim Net from the Simulation menu.
A net which is a victim net will have its driving stimulus set to a constant level 0 while all other nets
have the stimulus defined in the Stimulus tab of the Integrated Circuit dialog.

Set Aggressor Net

This command is active only for Crosstalk simulations.
To set an aggressor net select a net from the list in the Simulation window on the Signal Integrity
entry screen and click the Set Aggressor Net icon or select Set Aggressor Net from the Simulation
menu.
A net which is an aggressor net will have its stimulus defined in the Stimulus tab of the Integrated
Circuit dialog while all other nets are assigned a constant level 0 stimulus.

Reflection
With high-speed logic design it is becoming increasingly important to ensure that the topology of
the PCB interconnect is designed to minimize reflection and crosstalk effects.
Reflection effects are caused by impedance mismatching between components and traces as well
as individual trace segments. When traces go from layer to layer impedance discontinuities can
occur. Changes in topology such as T-junctions can also cause reflection.
The Reflection simulator calculates voltages at nodes of a net using routing and layer information of
the PCB and associated driver and receiver circuits.
The electrical characterization of the lines is automatically calculated by a 2D-field solver. Modeling
initially assumes that path losses are small enough to be disregarded.
The simulator provides you with detailed and highly accurate information on all signal integrity
related aspects like over- / undershoot, voltage and timing.
The Reflection simulator can be accessed either from the Simulation menu by choosing Reflection
from the pull-down menu or by clicking the mouse button on its icon. This initiates the Reflection
simulation for the selected nets.
The results of the Reflection simulation are returned presented in an oscilloscope-like wave
analyzer. The WaveAnalyzer commands are described in Chapter 7.

Crosstalk

Crosstalk
The P-CAD Xtalk simulator enables you to analyze crosstalk by simulating coupled nets extracted
from PC board circuit layouts.
Crosstalk is a type of interference caused by the electromagnetic waves transmitted from one trace
into adjacent traces.
P-CAD Xtalk simulator can be accessed either from the Simulation menu by selecting Crosstalk
from the pull-down menu, or by clicking the mouse button on its icon. This initiates the Crosstalk
simulation for the selected nets.
The output of the Crosstalk simulation is displayed by the Wave Analyzer on completion of the
simulation.
The time taken to simulate is related to the complexity of the problem being solved. The simulation
preparation involves the creation of a n matrix of capacitance and inductance per unit length
where n is the number of traces being analyzed.

General Commands
Library Commands
P-CAD Signal Integrity simulation results depend on parts and macromodel specifications. These
specifications are looked-up in a database the model library. This library is split into two sections:

Basic library

User library

The Basic library is an integral part of P-CAD Signal Integrity and cannot be modified.
The User library is initially empty and the user can use the Macromodel editor to insert custom
models and parts into the model library.
When the simulator looks-up a model or a part (searching is done by name) it first searches the
User library. If the desired model or part is not found in the User library, the simulator tries to find
in the Basic library. If the model or part is not found in the Basic library either, the simulator uses a
fallback model: Fallback model Technology HC.
The Library commands are accessed from the Library menu, which appears on the menu bar on the
P-CAD Signal Integrity screen. They deal with editing Macromodels and importing IBIS files.
Each of these commands is discussed below.

Macromodel Editor
Choosing Macromodel Editor from the Library pull-down menu displays the Macromodel Editor
window which is similar in appearance and functionality to the Microsoft Windows Windows
Explorer display.

The editor window is divided into two areas:

A library tree on the left

A document area on the right

The custom user models are organized in the library tree. You can navigate through the files system
as you do in the Windows Explorer.

Description of the library tree

The User library is the root of the tree. It contains a folder for each type of parts and models. Each
folder holds the list of user custom models defined in the database.
IC models are also sub-divided into available technology folders, as shown in the picture below.
Each technology folder holds the custom defined IC buffer models.

Resistors, Inductors, Capacitors Models

The view/edit dialog for Resistor, Inductors and Capacitors shows a list of pin connections and their
value.

When you create a new Resistor, Inductor or Capacitor you are prompted to specify how many pins
the new part will have. For simple resistors, you will use two, and for arrays (several resistors within
a part) you will use a number larger than two.
The Resistor Res500 shown below is a simple 2-pin.

Below is an example of a resistor array with 8 pins :

This will show as displayed below:

For example, you cannot generate the following connections:

Because you would have to do the following connections:

Connect pin 1 to pin 4 (110 Ohm) OK

Connect pin 2 to pin 4 (220 Ohm) OK

Connect pin 3 to pin 2 (330 Ohm) INVALID !

You cannot connect pin 3 to pin 2 because pin 2 is connected to pin 4 and pin 4 has already got
connections (connected to pin 1).
The edit dialog for Inductors and Capacitors is similar to the Resistor dialog but the dialog captions
are different and other units are used.

Import IBIS File

IBIS stands for Input/Output Buffer Information Specifications. It is an ANSI/EIA standard for
behavioral specifications of integrated circuits input/output analog characteristics.
The IBIS Standard is maintained by the IBIS Open Forum which meets monthly via teleconference
to discuss updates to the IBIS Standard.
In general IBIS defines the static input and output characteristics as well as values for slew rates for
Low/High and High/Low transition. Additionally, the IBIS v3.2 allows the specification of rising and
falling waveforms at the output. In IBIS, a reference load is used that consists of lumped elements
(resistance, capacitance, inductance and voltage source). Capacitance values for input and output
buffers are also specified in IBIS.
The complete IBIS specification and other information about IBIS are available on the IBIS home
page:
http://www.eia.org/eig/ibis/ibis.htm
The Import IBIS File command is accessed from the Library pull-down menu on the Signal Integrity
entry screen. When you choose Import IBIS File, the P-CAD IBIS Converter window is displayed
giving access to its menus and icons.

The icons and menu items are context sensitive; therefore only the commands available at any

Options Commands

Crosstalk
You can set the parameter used for search of parallel traces for the crosstalk simulation. Max.
Couple Distance specifies the maximum distance, which is used for searching parallel traces. The
larger this distance is specified, the more parallel traces will be found. Therefore the simulation
time will increase. Min. Couple Length specifies the minimum parallel length of a trace, which is
still considered to provide crosstalk. Short parallel segments do not provide much crosstalk, but
the simulation time will increase drastically.

Net Simplify
You can define the length of stubs (short open traces) to exclude from the simulation. Short stubs
will increase the simulation time drastically.

Units
You can alter your display units between mils and milllimeter with this option. Dimensions are not
altered, only the unit of measurements of dimension. A mil equals 0.001 inch or 0.0254 mm. A mm
equals 0.001 meter.

APPENDIX

List of Signal Integrity Digital Integrated Circuits

This appendix lists all the Digital Integrated Circuits included in P-CAD Signal Integrity and explains
the process of searching the Signal Integrity Device Library.

Signal Integrity Device Library

The P-CAD Signal Integrity Device Library consists of two major parts:
1.

A Base area
It contains electrical oriented device descriptions and simulation models. This data cannot be
modified by the user.

2.

A User area
Initially this area is empty. It is used to store any user driven extension or modification of
Signal Integrity Library contents.

Signal Integrity Device Handling/Search

When P-CAD Signal Integrity is searching PCB data initially the library module is called to get the
necessary electrical parameters and simulation models.
The following classes of devices are considered:

Digital Integrated Circuits

Connectors

Capacitors

Coils

Resistors

P-CAD Signal Integrity Users Guide

121

Appendix A: Digital Integrated Circuits included in P-CAD Signal Integrity

Devices, which could not be assigned to one of the named classes, are handled as Digital
Integrated Circuits.
The primary Signal Integrity library access key is the device name used inside the design data. If a
design device exactly matches a Signal Integrity library device, the latters electrical parameters and
simulation models will be used to perform the analysis.
When there is no direct match in a second search step for each not already found device, the first
more or less similar named device of the Signal Integrity library is used as reference. Example:

design name '74ABT244' matches Signal Integrity library device 'SN74ABT244DB',

design name 'ALVC16240' matches Signal Integrity library device '74ALVC16240DGG'.

If the second step search fails to find a nearly similar named device, the device type and associated
technology fallbacks are used to guarantee the proper functioning of the simulators.
In all cases of searching data, the pin count and the device type are taken into account.
All search operations start on the user area.

Digital Integrated Circuits included in P-CAD Signal Integrity

There are 4474 Digital Integrated Circuit components in the library. These are listed here in

Appendix B: P-CAD IBIS Converter System Messages

P-CAD IBIS Converter System Messages

Message

Model library could not be initialized!

You will not be able to generate any models!

Possible reasons

Model library non-existent/accessible or in wrong place

Model library damaged

Type

Warning

Occurrence

Converter Program Start

Cause

The converter program could not find the Model library. This may be
reasoned by:

passing an invalid library path to the converter on startup

the model library is not existent or in wrong place

the model library is damaged

Consequence

You cannot generate any models because there is no library to write them
to.

Solution

If you started P-CAD IBIS Converter from outside P-CAD Signal Integrity,
ensure that the parameter -lib <libpath> was passed where <libpath> is the
path to the Signal Integrity library, which is: \P-CAD 2002\Lib.
If you started P-CAD IBIS Converter from inside P-CAD Signal Integrity or if
you could not fix this problem for the case described above, you must reinstall P-CAD Signal Integrity.

Message

Loading IBIS File failed!

Type

Error

Occurrence

Loading an IBIS file

Cause

The IBIS file to be opened was not existent or could not be parsed correctly.

Consequence

You cannot use the IBIS file.

Solution

Contact device manufacturer for updated IBIS model.

Message

Invalid Model Name Syntax!

Type

Error

Occurrence

Editing the model name of a buffer

Cause

Syntax of model name was invalid. You may only use standard identifier

P-CAD Signal Integrity Users Guide

171

Appendix B: P-CAD IBIS Converter System Messages

syntax for model names, which is:

name must with an alphabetic character or a '_'

name may only contain alphanumeric characters or '_'

Consequence

The model name has not been changed.

Solution

Retry and enter a valid model name.

Message

Model Name too long (20-char. max.)!

Type

Error

Occurrence

Editing the model name of a buffer

Cause

Model name was too long.

Consequence

The model name has not been changed.

Solution

Retry and enter a model name using a maximum of 20 characters.

Message

The following models already exist in the library: [...model name list...]
These models will be overwritten if you continue. You may avoid this by
aborting the export now, re-name the affected models and then export
again.
Do you really want to overwrite the existing models?

Type

Warning

Occurrence

Exporting models to the library

Cause

The models listed already exist in the library.

Reasons for this can be that you exported the same models or other models
with the same names before or that other non-IBIS models in the library,
which were created with the macromodel editor already use that names.

Consequence

You must decide between aborting your action or overwriting the existing
models in the library.

Solution

If you are sure that you want to overwrite the listed models (e.g. because
you exported them before, changed some parameters now and want to rewrite the models to the library) press the Yes button.
If you are unsure and do not know anything about the models you would
over-write, press the No button, re-name the affected models and retry
exporting.
