Sonnet 18.56 Release Notes
(Release date August 2022)
Release notes for other versions.
Please see the 18.52 release notes for a list of new features introduced in Sonnet 18.
Technology File Format Change
The STF file format has been updated to use metal bias more efficiently. You must upgrade to 18.56 to use the new STF file format.
Fixed Bugs
Below is the most recent list of bugs fixed for version 18.56. If you wish to know more details for a particular entry, please contact Sonnet Support.
| Tracking Number | Summary |
|---|---|
| 12299 | Sonnet crashes when a Graph is refreshed, and the data is no longer available. |
| 12473 | The Project Editor occasionally crashes after changing dimension parameter values. |
| 12691 | Remote em reconnect fails every so often. |
| 12728 | Output files cannot handle symbolic links, when outputting from Circuit Settings. |
| 12767 | Selecting View > Zoom In from a graph, results in incorrect zoom functionality and will result in a blank window if you do a full view afterwards. |
| 12894 | In a graph, the cursor moves when left or right arrow keys are pressed. |
| 13789 | Clicking a measurement in a Sonnet’s graph’s user equation editor turns it red. |
| 13799 | Enhanced Resonance Detection (ERD) may terminate with internal error when project is simulated. |
| 13800 | Planar metal bias correction is wrong if there is both resistive-only and capacitive-only etch vs. width and spacing bias. |
| 13812 | In a Sonnet graph, the untapped measurement equations and Q-factor3 result in a blank curve. |
| 13819 | The EM solver crashes on project with Sonnet Project Component and when the subproject contains a Component. |
| 13822 | A Sonnet graph should put comma delimiters in the heading of .csv files (all curves to spreadsheet). |
| 13823 | The EM solver gives EG2290 error, or corrupted data when ABS sweep has frequency-dependent meshing. |
| 13833 | Sonnet may show a blank graph when plotting over optimization iteration. |
| 13834 | The EM solver terminates with internal error for circuit with project component set up for a parameter sweep. |
