Model of the Month

Modeling PCIe receiver detection circuit

How can a wireline transmitter detect the presence of a receiver connected to the other end of an AC-coupled channel?

Tip of the Month

Exporting XWAVE analysis results

You can perform the XWAVE analyses in Python scripts and export their results.

Primitive of the Month

compare

This primitive models a clocked comparator that samples its two analog inputs at each rising edge of the clock and determines the polarity of their difference.
