[WIN]PathWave Electrical Performance Scan (EP-Scan) (高效信号分析软件) 2023 Update 1

[WIN]PathWave Electrical Performance Scan (EP-Scan) (高效信号分析软件) 2023 Update 1插图

Keysight 是德科技的 PathWave Electrical Performance Scan (EP-Scan)是一款可独立运行的 EM 电磁信号仿真软件，仿真结果包括信号完整性度量方面的信息，如通道回波损耗、插入损耗和阻抗时域反射计(TDR)。EP-Scan 可以自动化进行不同设计版本之间的性能比较，并生成仿真报告。

EP-Scan 仅需PCB的布局几何和PCB叠层信息即可运行，不需要器件的IBIS模型或者S参数模型，导入PCB数据后指定要检查的网络和对应的规范标准之后，即可通过“EP-Scan”自动扫描您的PCB设计并生成合规结果报告。

EP-Scan是执行高效信号完整性分析的理想软件，其重点是以最少的精力和时间捕捉设计中的信号完整性问题。

使用EP-Scan，在导入PCB设计数据后，仅需三个简单的步骤即可获得信号完整性洞察力：

选择要分析的网络。
设置测试计划（选择网络的规格）。
运行分析。

如果任何网络违反所选择的规范标准，则会有明确的指示。如下图所示，差分对PCIE_TX4_P和PCIE_TX4_N超出了阻抗规格。阻抗单元的颜色变化指示违规。

EP-SCAN 仅需一次点击即可生成仿真报告结果，设置仿真并运行分析后，一键生成报告可最大限度地减少创建报告所需的工作量，消除了复制和粘贴数据的需要，见下图所示：
