Kemet’s line of capacitor models have been released to the SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation software, which allows Signal Integrity, Power Integrity, and board design engineers to model the decoupling scheme of a printed circuit board. The complete range has also been released to the Mentor Graphics simulation software products: HyperLynx 8.0 Power Integrity and HyperLynx Signal Integrity.
KEMET’s polymer products are specifically designed for the high speed processor board level decoupling applications. Using the simulation tools allows design engineers to model the time-domain and frequency behaviour of Aluminium, Film, Ceramic, and Tantalum SMD capacitors manufactured by Kemet. The company also offers Simulation Program for Integrated Circuits Emphasis (SPICE) modelling software which is available for download from its website.
