New model library for Microwave Office
3 October 2012
Design Automation
AWR and Modelithics, an industry leader in simulation models for RF, microwave and millimetre-wave devices, has announced the release of version 9.3 of the Modelithics COMPLETE Library for AWR’s Microwave Office high-frequency design software. The new library is a collection of the industry’s most advanced simulation models for passive components, transistors, diodes and more.
The combined product offerings of Modelithics libraries alongside AWR’s Microwave Office software gives microwave designers immediate access to high-fidelity parameterised models that better predict real-world behaviour when simulated within the AWR design environment.
Version 9.3 increases total library models by 20% and introduces more than 30 new global models for Modelithics’ popular surface mount RLC component families from vendors such as AVX, Coilcraft, Kemet, Murata, Piconics, Taiyo-Yuden and Temex.
Additionally, version 9.3 includes 22 new non-linear models for diodes and transistors, along with a new model formulation for step recovery diodes embodied in an Aeroflex/Metelics SRD model.
The release also introduces for the first time Agilent X-parameter models into Modelithics’ system-level component (SLC) library for AWR’s Microwave Office design environment. New transistor models include several gallium nitride (GaN) power transistor models and a 150 W laterally diffused metal oxide semiconductor (LDMOS) transistor.
In addition, the release contains new ultra-broadband mm-wave models, including 65 GHz validated models for Piconics conical inductors and 125 GHz validated nonlinear models for Schottky diodes from Virginia Diodes.
