    Abstract: A system and method for web-based interface design tool is provided. The design tool enables system designers to quickly and independently design a custom serial-link interface. The system provides interface selection and signal integrity analysis. An interface selection may interact with system designers to prompt for a set of selection criteria such as data-rate, supply rail, standard protocol, and intended application. An intelligent search engine screens through a large interface products database based on the selection criteria and provides designers with a list of devices that potentially meet the design criteria. The performance of the custom system with the selected device can be evaluated by using a web-based IBIS-AMI standard-compliant signal integrity simulator. A designers can have options to manually fine tune selected devices' parameters to iterate through different settings to determine the robustness of the solution.

    Abstract: Generating a template-driven schematic from a netlist of electronic circuits is disclosed. The template-driven schematic may be useful to generate a set of related circuits for a single overall design as well as allow for a common transfer mechanism between different Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems. To assist in portability of designs, a common file format is disclosed based on a structured text file (e.g., XML). Further, in the disclosed approach, it is possible to not only place primitives but create custom symbols as well. In addition, primitives and symbols may be attached to models, simulation settings may be added, and routing of the circuit in a schematic may be completed. Associated devices and methods are disclosed as well.

    Abstract: A computerized PCB coil circuit design system includes an input engine to receive PCB coil design parameters based on manufacturing rules including trace width and conductor thickness, to receive input parameters including LC sensor capacitance, coil shape, and number of coil layers, and to receive updates to any of the PCB coil design parameters or the input parameters. The system further includes a PCB coil solution generation engine to calculate output coil parameters including total inductance, sensor frequency, and Q factor as a function of the PCB coil design parameters and received input parameters, to graphically plot one selected output parameter as a function of one input parameter, and upon an update to one parameter selected from the parameters based on PCB manufacturing rule and input parameters, to recalculate the output coil parameters and to replot the one selected output coil parameter as a function of one input coil parameter.

    Abstract: A method includes receiving a circuit design including a plurality of components associated with a plurality of component parameters. The method further includes adjusting a value of a particular component parameter of the plurality of component parameters based on a tolerance to generate a modified plurality of component parameters. The method further includes determining, based on inputting the modified plurality of component parameters into a circuit calculator, that an operating value of the circuit design is sensitive to the particular component parameter. The method further includes selecting a simulation of the circuit design to perform based on the particular component parameter. The method further includes performing the simulation to determine whether the circuit design supports one or more design limits.
