Polar Si9000 v25
The Polar Si9000 (specifically Si9000e) is a boundary element method (BEM) field solver from Polar Instruments, designed for fast, accurate frequency-dependent modeling of PCB transmission lines. It excels in calculating controlled impedance, insertion loss, RLGC parameters, and S-parameters for high-speed designs, supporting over 100 structures including microstrips, striplines, coplanar waveguides, and differential pairs. Si9000e is essential for signal integrity analysis in multilayer PCBs, helping engineers predict and mitigate issues like signal attenuation and reflections in applications such as 5G, RF, and high-frequency digital circuits. It integrates seamlessly with Polar’s ecosystem, including Speedstack Si for stackup design and CGen for impedance coupon generation, allowing data import/export for end-to-end workflows. The tool runs on Windows, offers graphing for impedance magnitude, losses, inductance,...
