Hello Andy, I get roughly the same numbers as the HSPICE field solver using a Lossy T-Line Calculator. You might want to check the the setup with FastHenry. -Jory Andy Kuo <andy1390@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi Jory, Please see attached pdf file for the dimension. The length is 25.4mm, and the dielectric is simply air. I do not think dielectric will affect inductance though Any suggestions and help will be really appreciated, Thanks in advance, Andy On 12/6/06, Jory McKinley < jory_mckinley@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hello Andy, > Can you post the conductor(h,w,thick)/dielectric properties and dimensions > as well? > -Jory > > > Andy Kuo <andy1390@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Jory, > I have compared both the loop inductance and partial inductance and > cannot have the values agree. > Here is the inductance from HSPICE fieldsolver and it is per meter > > + Lo = 3.684847e-07 2.023918e-08 > + 2.023918e-08 3.684847e-07 > To compare with FastHenry, I multipled the above to 25.4mm as the > length of the conductor is 25.4mm and the results are: > + Lo = 9.3595114e-9 5.1407517e-10 > + 5.1407517e-10 9.3595114e-9 > > Compare to FastHenry (partial inductance) below, the results are still > very far away. > Row 0: 2.99871e-008 1.61083e-008 > Row 1: 1.61083e-008 2.99868e-008 > > > Does anyone know why? > > Thanks, > Andy > > On 12/6/06, Jory McKinley wrote: > > Hello Andy, > > Could be that you are looking at partial inductance versus loop inductance > which will not agree.
