["Jon Powell" <jonpowell@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Unless they have changed something recently, XTK does not have any direct
SPICE interface. The spice circuits and connectors would have to be changed
into QUAD XTK format. There is a tool in XTK (called spi2mod) that would
assist in translating the actual .spi circuit, but the other passive
circuits would have to be changed by hand. This would not be too hard if the
connection information does not involve coupled transmission lines (you
could create QUAD XTK subcircuit files).

Have you tried calling Mentor customer support?

What version of XNS are you using?

regards,
jon

Subject: [SI-LIST] Queries related to XTK


Hello all,
I am using epd XTK 3.1 for my simulations. I have 2 queries related to this
tool.
1. How do we set up XTK to simulate the eye diagrams?

2. I have the model of a high density connector in MLM (multi-line model)
spice format. It includes:
* conn.spi which is the main circuit file, containing pin mapping between
the spice nodes and the connector rows, subcircuits containing inductance,
resistance and capacitance subcircuits for the various sections.
* Dat files containing piecewise linear and differential piecewise linear
sources.
So far I have used IBIS models with XTK and NOT familiar with use of spice
models. I would like to know how I could interface this model to XTK?

Please let me know.

Thanks,
--mahe.
