X2Y Mount
The X2Y Mount tab, shown in Figure 1–6 , calculates the capacitor mounting
inductance seen by the X2Y decoupling capacitor.
You enter all the information relevant to your layout and the tool provides a
mounting inductance for a X2Y capacitor mounted on either the top or bottom layer
of the board. As with the other tabs, you can save the changes made to the tab, restore
the changes, and restore the tab back to the default settings.
