Thanks to everyone for your help! What I was lacking was a part of the trace statement identifying the trace as material=copper. That ever-important line was not in the example in the manual that I was looking at. So Ted, it seems that your tool is hunky-dorey with loss. Thanks again to everyone that e-mailed me back with assistance. --Pat :-) -----Original Message----- From: Ted Mido [mailto:mido@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, February 11, 2002 5:15 PM To: Patrick_Carrier@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [SI-LIST] Lossy FS W-elements in HSpice Dear Patrick, If you have any particular case which gives you unexpected RLGC, please let us know.
