Visualize and Interpret Parallel Link Project Analysis Results
Visualize and interpret the network characterization and statistical and time
domain analysis results
Using the Parallel Link Designer app, you can analyze the results of network characterization and statistical and time domain analysis. The app reports various metrics and visualizations including the eye diagrams, bathtubs, and contours to provide insight into your design. You can also perform waveform and timing analysis.
You can also use data mining and advanced visualization techniques to narrow down the large simulation data to focus on the area of your interest.
