•How to graph Zo Vs H

(and predict impedance change due tovariations in laminate thickness)

(This tutorial assumes you have only elementary knowledge of Excel)

•How to graph Zo Vs H

Knowing how Zo varies with H can help you increase yields by makingprocess adjustments to compensate

for base material variation(This tutorial assumes you have only elementary knowledge of Excel)

Please run through all the slides to give yourself an overview.

Then launch the Si6000b, and click the surface microstrip graphic simply work through the examples yourself.

If you are not familiar with some of the features of Excel, you may find it worth taking a brief course to get the best from your Si6000b

Here’s how to run SI6000 for the first time

its simple to drag and drop the field

How Zo changes with core dimensions

•Here is one example of a spreadsheet created by a customer who needed to

use Si6000 to graph impedance sensitivity against structure height..

How creative can you be?

Thank you for taking the time to study this introduction.

If you download the following two presentations youwill find how easy it is to build an example similar to the

previous slide for yourself.
