Notice of S-NAP Electromagnetic Field Simulator Seminar on May 11, 2016 (Wednesday)

Study of power supply impedance using S-NAP/Field

In the power supply and ground pattern shown in Fig. 4, we remove the IC as shown in Fig. 5 and set a port at the IC's power terminal, then simulate the impedance from that port. The power supply terminal (the port section in Fig. 4) is connected to ground. Fig. 5 shows the current distribution at 225 MHz. As shown in Fig. 6, resonance is observed around 240 MHz, and at this frequency, it can be seen that current is already concentrated on the power input terminal side (the left end of the pattern). 【Features】 ○ Fig. 6 shows the impedance characteristics from 10 MHz to 500 MHz. ○ As is clear from the Smith chart, it demonstrates the characteristics of a transmission line with a short-circuited end. ○ The impedance reaches its maximum around 240 MHz, indicating that resonance occurs at this frequency (λ/4 resonance of the short-circuited stub).

Response waveform analysis of digital patterns using S-NAP/Field and Pro.

By analyzing multilayer substrates using S･NAP-Field, it is possible to analyze not only microwave circuits but also the coupling of digital circuits. To obtain response waveforms, waveform analysis can be performed using S･NAP-Pro based on the S-parameters obtained from S･NAP-Field, allowing for the observation of crosstalk and response waveforms at the waveform level. There are two methods for performing waveform analysis with S･NAP-Pro: one uses either the linear response waveform analysis function or the harmonic balance analysis function, and the other employs the convolution integral method to determine transient responses. Each of these methods has its own characteristics and should be chosen according to the specific objectives. This paper summarizes the overview and points of consideration for these methods. 【Methods】 ○ Extract signal sources present in the circuit ○ Perform Fourier transform on the signal sources, store the values of each spectrum, and create a frequency table ○ Execute AC analysis according to the frequency table created in the previous step, and obtain the spectrum at the observation point ○ Reconstruct waveforms at each observation point based on the spectrum For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Study of power supply impedance using circuit simulator (S-NAP/Pro)

In the design phase of print patterns, using simulators allows for efficient design and makes it easier to grasp essential issues. There are broadly two types of simulators used in microwaves: circuit simulators and electromagnetic field simulators. Circuit simulators are limited to specific circuit models but can perform circuit calculations based on Kirchhoff's laws, enabling very fast simulations. Electromagnetic field simulators, on the other hand, solve Maxwell's equations rigorously and can accurately simulate complex electromagnetic phenomena, but they require significantly more analysis time compared to circuit simulators. However, by appropriately distinguishing between these simulators, it is possible to efficiently identify and address issues.

Visualizing noise on printed circuit boards! Greatly effective in shortening development time and reducing production costs!

The "S-NAP PCB Suite Ver.2" is an electromagnetic simulation software that can analyze the noise conditions of printed circuit boards with components mounted. By simply interacting with the computer-recreated board in its component-mounted state, you can visualize noise waveforms and signals, making it easy to analyze noise conditions. Additionally, by separating the analysis engines used for "pattern analysis" and "mounted component analysis," it allows for rapid analysis of characteristic differences even when component changes or load conditions are modified. 【Features】 ● Compatible with Windows Vista/7/8 ● Equipped with 5 types of analysis modes and 3 types of support tools ● Significantly reduces development time and production costs 【Announcement for Microwave Exhibition 2014】 We will be giving a presentation at the exhibitor seminar of the "Microwave Exhibition 2014" held at Pacifico Yokohama. We kindly invite you to attend this opportunity.

Visualize noise characteristics! A new simulator has arrived to make noise countermeasures for printed circuit boards easier!

The electromagnetic field simulator for printed circuit board analysis, 'S-NAP PCB Suite (Ver.2)', integrates electromagnetic field analysis with circuit analysis. It quickly analyzes large printed circuit boards with more than 10 layers in real-time. By simply touching the component terminals, you can observe waveforms and spectra in real-time, making it easy to check the amount of noise superimposed on the signal! Additionally, it allows for easy understanding of "voltage," "current density distribution," and "locations of noise distribution." By analyzing the entire board, you can understand the coupling state of complex noise, significantly reducing the time required for noise countermeasures! Furthermore, through a technical collaboration with System Design Laboratory Co., Ltd., we provide comprehensive support from operational techniques to countermeasure proposals. We also offer the microwave circuit and electromagnetic field simulator "S-NAP Microwave Suite," which enables design and analysis of microwave circuits, antennas, and ultra-high-speed logic circuits.

Is something like this happening in your workplace? ■ Suddenly, equipment stops ■ Small troubles and short-term stoppages occur repeatedly, and yield loss does not decrease ■ "Something just feels off..." but the cause cannot be identified You might be missing the SOS signals from your equipment. Equipment is like a "baby." Instead of expressing itself in words, it signals trouble through subtle changes such as "sounds," "smells," "vibrations," and "heat." To notice these changes, it is essential to cultivate the ability to "sense slight changes" through routine maintenance. By performing tasks like refueling, cleaning, and inspection ourselves, we can catch abnormalities in the equipment early and prevent major breakdowns. Just 5 minutes of maintenance a day can become the greatest weapon for "producing goods according to the production plan." We will proceed with a workshop included. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

Today, the manufacturing site is facing a labor shortage. Therefore, it cannot function without part-time workers, temporary employees, and foreign workers. This issue is not limited to the manufacturing sector. The key lies in how to educate these individuals in a short period of time so that they can perform actual tasks efficiently and smoothly to produce quality products. In this seminar, participants will learn effective teaching methods and improve their skills as instructors. This will enable on-site workers to perform tasks using standardized procedures, significantly enhancing quality and productivity. Even newcomers or foreign employees can become immediate assets in a short time. By honing the "ability to teach," we will create a system that ensures workers adhere to established procedures and do not revert to previous methods. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*
