Enhancements and Bug Fixes in Release 16.54
The following is a brief description of enhancements and bug fixes for release 16.54. If you wish to know more details for a particular entry, please contact Sonnet Support.
-
Fix #6027 - Improved noise-floor for netlist engine with perfect s-parameters.
Fix #6185 - Partial S-parameter data files are now output with the frequencies in order.
Fix #9811 - Removed excessive noise in a zero-ohm resistor.
Fix #10035 - Corrected occasional discontinuous s-parameter response when rough metal model is used.
Fix #10082 - Fixed the modeling of via junctions with thick metal polygons.
Fix #10483 - Fixed the Modify => Move keyboard shortcut so that is retained after it is assigned.
Fix #10592 - Packed Project Export dialog box only includes Current Density data when it is selected by user.
Fix #10637 - Em no longer terminates if select ABS band within AWR interface doesn't overlap any AWR frequencies.
Fix #10638 - Improved the speed for accessing Modelithics models over a network.
Fix #10643 - Conformal mesh updated to handle small gap problems.
Fix #10644 - Corrected conformal meshing for polygons with extremely short edges.
Fix #10645 - Project editor no longer creates a corrupt project file if an undo is done which deletes a polygon with a reference plane attached.
Fix #10648 - Project editor's Boolean => Union command now properly handles via ports.
Fix #10654 - A circuit with complex, overlapped, conformal mesh polygons no longer crashes em.
Fix #10658 - The recovery command for Remote em now works for netlist projects which reference one or more subprojects.
Fix #10660 - Quad precision may now be used for a box dimension which is larger than 16384 cells.
Fix #10662 - Canceling an Estimate Memory command no longer generates an error.
Fix #10663 - Stopping a Remote em job on Linux platforms no longer produces a communication error.
Fix #10668 - Vias attached to the bottom of thick metal polygons no longer cause meshing errors.
Fix #10672 - Em no longer crashes when circuit with complex conformal mesh geometry and overlapped via polygons is simulated.
Fix #10675 - Em now supports diagonal co-calibrated ports connected to conformal mesh polygons.
Fix #10676 - Auto-grounded ports placed on the ground plane no longer causes a crash.
Fix #10688 - Co-calibrated ports using Sonnet box ground attached to downward thick metal polygons now function correctly.
Fix #10699 - Em now ignores zero-area polygons and no longer outputs the EG2210 error message.
Fix #10726 - De-embedding for a box wall port without a reference plane is correct when simulating a DC Point as part of an ABS sweep.
