Hi Charles, Thanks for your reply. I used Q3D to do the extraction and the difference is 1pF. @100MHz, the capacitance is about 11.5pF, while 10pF @1GHz. Altough the difference is small, I still want to know why has this change. On Thursday, January 8, 2015 5:28 AM, "Grasso, Charles" <Charles.Grasso@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi - two questions: 1. What is the delta between the differences? And 2. What is the tool are you using for the extraction? I suspect you are seeing "rounding" errors from the simulation engine.

When I extract the RLCG of ideal transmission line, I observe that the capacitance varies in different frequency, although it's small. In my opinion, the capacitance should keep same when the frequency changes, because I set the relative dielectric constants same in all the frequency. Could anybody help explain it ? ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List forum is accessible at:        http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list List archives are viewable at:        //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at:       http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu  ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List forum is accessible at:        http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list List archives are viewable at:        //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at:       http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu  ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List forum is accessible at: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/si-list List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
