| Q: |
Is EMI Stream able to analyze with Gerber data? |
| A: |
No, Gerber data does not contain net information; therefore, EMI Stream cannot perform the necessary checks functions. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Can a customized function be complied? |
| A: |
Even though EMI Stream is not able to comply with each customized function, if we receive requests from a customer and they are determined to have usage in a general sense, the function will be added in the next version of software. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What CAD I/F can be accepted? |
| A: |
Design file I/F, PADS I/F and Zuken CR I/F. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Can
the application report EMI issues are reported separately
from Signal Integrity issues? |
| A: |
EMIStream has
interface to HyperLynx. Therefore, EMI issues are reported
by EMIStream and Signal Integrity issues are reported by
HyperLynx, if the user has both tools. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Can
you list more specifically the Signal Integrity issues
that are identified by the application? |
| A: |
This application can
not identify SI issues. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Does
the system handle multiple power planes or does the system
assume one power and one ground plane? |
| A: |
Yes it does. This
system analyzes one pair of GND and Power per a time, even
if there are multiple Powers. Therefore, when thereare
multiple powers, the user has to analyze one by one. |

| Q: |
By the time of utilization of EMIStream, what preparation needs to be done before hand? |
| A: |
The library and thresh hold values have already been set up. Therefore, if CAD data has been obtained beforehand, it can be utilized by the time of installed. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How do floating licenses work with EMI Stream? |
| A: |
Only one division within the same building are authorized to use EMI Stream. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Even in the case of 2 layers, is it possible to do the necessary checks? |
| A: |
EMI check can be used with only 2 layers. However, in case of 2 layers, generally resonance analysis cannot be used, as usually no Ground and Power plane exist. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Is it possible to verify the check results without EMIStream? |
| A: |
Yes, it is possible to verify with EMI Stream viewer, which is optional software. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Are
SPICE or IBIS models required for components? |
| A: |
No, EMIStream do not
required model of compoments for customers. |
| |
|
| Q: |
What
characteristics of the component are used? |
| A: |
EMIStream has some
characteristics of component as default. |
| |
|
| Q: |
If
a new component is encountered what has be done to
integrate its characteristics into the system? |
| A: |
Yes. Customer can
use their characteristics. |
| |
|
| Q: |
On
a percentage basis, how many designs has EMIStream been
applied to for chip design vs board design? |
| A: |
EMIStream is used
only for board. |
| |
|
| Q: |
How
many license of EMIStream or its predecessor are being
used worldwide? |
| A: |
Over 100 in Japan
and couple in Asia area. |
| |
|
| Q: |
Are
SPICE or IBIS models required for components? |
| A: |
