Polar Instruments: Si and Speedstack Projects Now Shipping
July 27, 2015 | Polar InstrumentsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
Polar Instruments is delighted to announce that Projects option is now available in Speedstack PCB, Speedstack Si, Si8000m and Si9000e layer stackup, impedance & insertion loss design tools. Projects allows groups of structures to be saved and recalled in Si8000m and Si9000e and entire stackups of structures to be pasted from Speedstack into Si8000m and Si9000e with just a few clicks of the mouse.
As a reminder of the projects' capabilities, click here.
Projects is a cost option – however existing customers may upgrade to benefit from Projects capability at no cost as a concession provided Polarcare remains active.
One last note – the 2015 releases of Si8000m and Si9000e also add a “copy structure parameters” – This lets you copy all the relevant geometric structure information from for example a coated to an uncoated structure – or a single ended to a differential pair – it offers significant time savings when making comparisons.
