Broadband SPICE synthesizes network parameters to SPICE equivalent circuits and provides a passive compact circuit model while maintaining accuracy for efficient transient simulations in HSPICE, PSPICE, or other SPICE-compatible circuit simulators, including Sigrity's own time-domain simulator SPEED2000. Broadband SPICE accepts network parameters such as the scattering, impedance, or admittance (S, Z, or Y) parameters of N-port passive networks from Touchstone files and from Sigrity's more compact Broadband Network Parameter (BNP) format. The compact black-box models created by Broadband SPICE offer excellent convergence.

	Broadband SPICE Applications:
	Creating SPICE equivalent circuits from network parameters Bridging frequency and time domains Generating models for DC through broadband frequencies  Extracting network models with multiple resonance points Modeling a broad range of structures including IC packages, RF components, printed circuit boards (PCBs), cables, and connectors Assessing real-world situations such as parallel traces traversing a split plane, spiral inductors, and return path discontinuities Generating a very high order, but numerically stable model, for complex network responses Enabling analysis of power and signal integrity issues such as what-if optimization of power delivery system performance and simultaneous switching output simulation
	Broadband SPICE Advantages:
	Easy touch button model creation for use with HSPICE and general SPICE simulators Simplifies use of S-parameter data Provides models that are both accurate and compact resulting in improved SPICE simulation convergence and speed Rigorous passivity enforcement assured by automated techniques along with interactive user review and control Automatic determination of topology and circuit order based on network parameter curve complexity Flexible to support flows where the target simulator may vary and where models are provided to others Supports both Touchstone files and Sigrity's more compact Broadband Network Parameter (BNP) format
