NEW - The Ultimate PCB Material Reference Library
Introductory Offer - 50% Off!
		  In-Circuit Design Pty Ltd is proud to 
		  launch the new 
		  iCD Dielectric Materials Library 
		  - a standalone tool featuring 
		  over 1,400 dielectric material types 
		  from 84 manufacturers, supporting frequencies up to 100GHz. 
		  Whether you're designing rigid or flex 
		  stackups with core, prepreg, or solder 
		  mask/coverlay, this is the most comprehensive library ever 
		  compiled.
Designed for all 
		  EDA tool users, PCB fabricators, and Engineers 
		  working with Stackup 
		  Field Solvers, this 
		  independent, standalone resource is a game-changer for anyone serious 
		  about precision and performance in high-speed, high-frequency PCB 
		  design.
Save time, avoid 
		  guesswork, and design with confidence.

iCD Products
iCD Stackup Planner
Controlled Impedance Planner - Offers Engineers and PCB Designers unprecedented simulation speed, ease of use and accuracy at an affordable price.
iCD PDN Planner
AC Impedance and Decoupling Planner - Analyze multiple power supplies to maintain low impedance over the entire frequency range dramatically improving product performance.
iCD CPW Planner
Coplanar Waveguide Planner - Model microstrip Coplanar Waveguides to reduce radiation loss, of high-speed serial links, significantly improving product performance.
High-Speed Design Features
HDI Via Span Definition
The Via Span Definition dialog allows the user to insert PTH, Blind or Buried Microvias that span two or more internal layers.iCD Termination Planner
Extracts IV curves from IBIS models. Calculates the required series terminator of the distributed system including loads.Matched Delay Optimization
Relative signal layer propagation. Ideal for DDRx trace delay matching.Electromagnetic Radiation
The Electromagnetic Emissions (EMI) plot represents the projected maximum radiated noise if a high-speed signal excites the plane resonance at a particular frequency.Mirror Stackup
Stackup Mirroring allows the user to cut data entry time in half. Create the top half of a symmetric stackup, right click on the stackup, and select "Mirror Stackup".Multiple Differential Pairs
Insert multiple Differential Pair definitions per layer. This is the first Impedance Calculator/Stackup Planner that allows the user to setup as many different impedances as you like on the one layer or every layer of the stackup.Coplanar Waveguide Planner
Model microstrip Coplanar Waveguides to reduce radiation loss, of high-speed serial links, significantly improving product performance. Insert solder mask and dielectrics from library.Dielectric Materials Library
Over 31,250 rigid/flex materials to 100GHz. The DML improves the accuracy by using the same core, prepreg and soldermask materials stocked by the PCB Fabricator.Heads-up Impedance Plots
The Z plots are simulated by multiple passes of the field solver to create heads-up graphs of how to adjust the variables to achieve the desired impedance.Signal Flight Time
Extracts the inductance and capacitance and the propagation velocity of each layer in the stackup. The user needs enters the trace length for each signal layer, then total flight time is then calculated.S-Parameter Import
Import Sparam Models from Vendors. The Scattering Parameter (S-Param) import to the iCD PDN Planner is via the Touchstone 2-Port (s2p) format.PDN Capacitor Library
The iCD PDN Planner Starter Capacitor Library contains over 5,650 SMD Ceramic and Tantalum capacitors, extracted from SPICE models, from ATC, AVX, Johanson, Kemet, Murata, Samsung,Taiyo Yuden and TDK range that are readily available.More About Us

 - What customers say about our articles:
 - 
					
I did a video board with DDR2 memory a while ago on Altium. Thank you for your routing tips for DDR2, which I got off the internet. They helped a lot and the board now works like a dream. I will continue to follow your articles in the PCB magazine. It is people like yourself that make life so much easier for the rest of us. Thanks once again for your insightful articles in The PCB Design Magazine.

'Just a quick note to let you know we really like this program you guys made. It's doing a great job for us.'
 - Michael Ingham - Spectrum Integrity Inc
 -  
                  
'The iCD Stackup Planner has proven very useful especially for highlighting the affects of builds and other amendments on the calculated impedance to the customers. It is both flexible and concise with only a very short learning curve required to use confidently.'
