About the Self Impedence Table

• Target Met: Provides an overall verdict of the simulation for a given rail.
• PDN Group: Rail name.
• Port Name: Port under a given rail.
• Max Cross-Z Port: Other port in the PDN group that is causing the highest cross impedance with the port (mentioned in Port Name).
• ZPK1-Result Impedance: Reports the maximum cross impedance in the frequency region of 1 MHz to 5 MHz.
• ZPK1-Target: Provides the target cross impedance at the measured frequency.
• ZPK1-Frequency: Measured frequency where the cross impedance is maximum.
• ZPK2-Result Impedance: Reports the maximum cross impedance in the frequency region of 5 MHz to 24 MHz.
• ZPK2-Target: Provides target impedance at the measured frequency.
• ZPK2-Frequency: Measured frequency at which impedance is maximum.
• 200MHz-Result Impedance: Reports the impedance at 200MHz.
• 200MHz-Target: Impedance target at 200MHz.
• 200MH-Result Inductance: Reports the inductance in pH measured from a slope between 190MHz and 200MHz.
• 200MHz-Target: Inductance target.

Vdrop Table

• Target Met: Gives overall verdict of simulation for a given rail
• PDN Group: Rail name
• Port Name: Port under a given rail
• Calculated Vdrop (mV): Evaluated the voltage drop as seen at the load port pins, considering the current taken by all the load ports in the PDN group and the self/transfer resistances extracted from the simulation.
• Calculated Vdrop (%): Voltage drop as a percentage of the nominal voltage of the rail.
• Calculated additional voltage uplift (mV): Additional uplift required at PMIC to meet the Vmin specification.
• Aggregated Additional Voltage Uplift (mV): Maximum of the additional uplift required considering all the ports.
• Nominal (V): PMIC Set Voltage.
• Compensated (V): Estimation of the final voltage after boost seen at the output of regulators (which have a feedback mechanism) to maintain the nominal voltage at the sense tap location. Note that this column will have data only for those ports which are driven by regulators with feedback.
• Ipeak (mA): Peak current taken by the port
• Calculated Vmin (before uplift): Worst case minimum voltage that will be seen at the port, before the PMIC voltage uplift.
• Calculated Vmin (after uplift): Worst case minimum voltage seen at the load port after the PMIC voltage uplift.
• Target Vmin (V): Vmin specification for the load port
• Calculated Vmax (after uplift): Worst case maximum voltage seen at the load port after the PMIC voltage uplift.
• Target Vmax (V): Vmax specification for the load port.

VRM Table

• Target Met: Gives overall verdict of simulation for a given rail
• PDN Group: Rail name
• Port Name: Port under a given rail; it will be the switching pin for SMPS or the voltage output pin in the case of LDO.
• DCR PMIC Lumped-SoC (mOhm): Provides DCR measurement in mOhm between the listed source and the load device for a given port.
• Target: Target resistance for above.
• DCR Vsense-SOC (mOhm): Provides DCR measurement in mOhm between the sense trace tap point on the power net and the load port.
