SI Wizard: Configuration of a link with serial capacitor

      Hello, 

      I am trying to use SI Wizard on SI Wave to simulate High speed link. I have a link between two ICs with a serial Capacitor. Could you please tell me, how to configure this component on Si Wizard ( type, exicitation Source, exposed pad).

      I have replaced the capacitor by the S parameter Model of the manufacturer, should I deactivate the capacitor in that case ? 

      Regards, 

      Auriane

      Hello Auriane,

      You do not need to deactivate the cap. You just need to leave the caps unexposed, which it looks like you do. When you disable “Exposed” for the caps this allows the capacitors to be part of the simulation. You don’t need to do any further configuration. It looks like you have configured your caps propperly from your screenshot.

      Best,
      Nathan
