Speedstack PCB – Impedance field solver and layer stackup package

Speedstack PCB is a packaged combination of the Si8000 field solving impedance calculator and the Speedstack professional layer stackup design system. If you need both impedance calculation and layer stackup/build up documentation the Speedstack PCB offers a considerable saving over purchasing separate licenses.
Zuken DFM Center - Polar Speedstack link

The Zuken DFM Center PCB manufacturing pre-processing and CAM system integrates directly with Polar Instruments’ Speedstack PCB system, ensuring high final product quality, consistency of documentation, reduced costs and shorter time-to market whilst reducing the possibility of errors.

IPC Apex – Rick Hartley interviews Polar's Martyn Gaudion

Managing layer stackup across the supply chain with Polar's Speedstack

High-speed design consultant Rick Hartley interviews Polar Instruments' Martyn Gaudion at IPC Apex on the subject of Managing layer stackup across the supply chain using Speedstack.

Speedstack PCB is ideal for you if:

You need to calculate impedance requirements on multilayer boards with multiple controlled impedance structures per stack. You need to make changes to the stack - for example substitute material in the case of a shortage, and rapidly check (for example) overall height, line width and transmission line impedance values.  By employing the link between the Si8000 field solver and  Speedstack  you can recalculate all the impedance values in a single pass in a fraction of the time taken traditionally.

Your materials:

PCB fabricators can build a library of commonly used materials and materials that are normally available from stock along with cost or performance information. Speedstack PCB allows you to direct import your materials library in text delimited form. This information may be shared with interconnect designers. This means that designers can at a glance choose materials on a basis of cost / lead time / or performance.
