Hi Lee
I strongly recommend you to use HFSS in this case...
First because HFSS (and other equivalent 3D EM solver) is the most accurate
way to simulate very high frequency critical transition, like in your case
Second, because you can have the benefit to plot E and H field on the cross
section and debug the physical behavior of this structure... like see if a
cavity resonance is excited, or where you have more mismatch losses, where
you have stub resonances etc.
Anyway with SIwave you can also do a double sanity check and simulate the
entire high speed path within the full layout... this will allow you to
combine SI performance with your PDN structure (SI-PI cosimulation) and see
if you really excite any cavity resonance in your PDN... so you can
understand where is the best location for stitching VIAs...
P.S. if you are using the latest version of SIwave, I strongly recommend
you to activate the 3D DDM (Domain-Decomposition-Method)... this allow you
to activate a special solver for 3D critical region and increase a lot the
accuracy...
for further details, please contact your local ANSYS tech. support
I hope this help
Cheers
