Compatibility
2.9.0 release target; review-build/source evidence
Package applicability is under review; follow the stated version and platform limits.

Check the exact restriction

The maintained manual documents variable-step support for PHASE analysis with BDF integration. LOSSLESS transmission lines block this mode; an untyped T element defaults to LOSSLESS.

Choose a valid run

  1. Read the diagnostic's list of blocking lines and check the model assigned to each.
  2. Use a validated fixed-step setup for LOSSLESS lines.
  3. Use LCLADDER only when its finite LC-ladder approximation is physically appropriate. Do not change the model merely to silence the restriction.
  4. Repeat the calculation with a smaller nominal step when validating edges or amplitudes; accepted settings alone do not establish convergence.
