2.9 Considerations for Simulation

(Ask a Question)

Simulations must confirm the quality of the received signal. The following files are needed to simulate the serial channel:

IBIS: AMI files for SmartFusion2/IGLOO2 and any other devices that are connected to SerDes
Package: files (optional). S-parameter of package improves the accuracy instead of using package parameters in the IBIS file
Board traces model file including via models
Connector models, if required

The following steps describe how to run the serial channel simulations:
