dear Steven, I would disagree with you up to date 3D simulator does not require several days just to setup a model in addition if you can get a good support and a training I am quite sure it is possible to setup several model in one day :-))) Respectfully Giancarlo -----Messaggio originale----- Da: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx per conto di Salkow, Steven Inviato: mar 08/08/2006 17.35 A: weirsi@xxxxxxxxxx; si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: dburns@xxxxxxxxxx Oggetto: [SI-LIST] Re: Wire bonding David: 3D field solvers are very hard to use and require several days to even set up a simulation. There are people that are experts at this and affordably charge by the hour. Here's a contact Douglas Burns ,Vice President, Consulting Services/Chief Consultant ,Signal Integrity Software, Inc. ,6 Clock Tower Place ,Maynard, MA 01754 ,978-461-0449 x14 ,dburns@xxxxxxxxxx , CCA pcb design By the way, 3D field solvers are very expensive and have a steep learning curve. Another approach is to find someone using the same package you are using that has an IBIS model for it. The pin parasitics should be in the ASCII file. (many IBIS files are available for download) Steven Salkow Senior Staff Lockheed IS&S 3130 Zanker Rd, San Jose Ca. 94588 (408) 473-4058 steven.salkow@xxxxxxxx salkow@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:si-list-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of steve weir Sent: Monday, August 07, 2006 8:24 PM To: dan1_st@xxxxxxxxx; si-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: Wire bonding David, unless you have considerable experience with structures that have very similar geometry you can not estimate reliably accurate numbers. 5Gb is fast enough that you have the potential to excite some less than amusing resonances that can keep you from transferring much energy between your sources and intended loads. Your packaging house may be able to help you. Otherwise you need to find 3D field solver software and someone who knows how to drive it. Steve.
