Subject: [SI-LIST] HELP!! SpecctraQuest is GOOD/BAD Tool for Board Level
Simulation < 400 MT/s???
Gurus,

I recently heard a fellow say that SpecctraQuest is not an acceptable
tool for SI simulation (timing, signal quality) due to imperfections
and/or bugs in the program. Basically, the assertion was that the tool
would not generate correct results. I would like some opinions from
industry experts as to the viability of the tool.
=20
The application I am interested in is board level simulation of
digital busses using IBIS models. I plan to use the tool primarily to
investigate solution space via flight time analysis. Signal quality
issues (ringback, non-monotonicities) would limit my solution space as
well. Can this tool be used for such a purpose, or does the SI
community generally expect faulty results from this tool? BTW,
switching frequencies for most busses I would be working on is less than
400 MT/s.
=20
Are other SI experts in the industry using SpecctraQuest to simulate
such busses? Are other folks in the industry yielding accurate results
using this tool, or should I discount the use of this tool as a bad
choice based on collective industry experience?
=20
Please respond... the more responses I get, the more confidence I have
in tool selection. I will post the results of poll as favorable # vs.
unfavorable # of responses should the forum be interested.

Thanks,
-A Concerned SI Guy
