            Abstract : 
A method for making SPICE circuit model of differential twinax cable from measured 4-port S-parameters is proposed. Ideal transmission lines are used in the middle of the model to represent the major part of the cable delay. Commercial SPICE model generator based on S-parameters can be used for the rest parts of the model. The circuit models have good correlation with the original measured frequency-domain responses and can be used in any SPICE-like transient circuit simulation tools.
