Agilent Technologies Announces Availability of Mitsubishi Electric’s
Nonlinear RF Model Library for
Advanced Design System
|
January 12, 2012 Press Release
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 12, 2012 – Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced that the latest model
library for Mitsubishi Electric’s nonlinear GaAs and GaN RF devices is now available for use with Agilent’s
Advanced Design System.
The upgraded library works seamlessly with
ADS 2009 Update 1, as well as prior ADS releases. ADS2011 and future versions will also be supported. The
model can be obtained by contacting Mitsubishi Electric.
The new ADS model library includes high-power GaN
HEMT and low-noise HEMT devices commonly used in base station and direct-broadcast satellite receivers as well as
other radio communications equipment. The library helps designers better explore design alternatives in order to
meet demanding performance specifications with a cost-effective solution.
The library includes an ADS symbol for schematic capture, a simulation model that includes parasitic effects. It
also covers a broad variety of body sizes and part values that enable sweeps and optimizations.
“Collaborating with a recognized world leader in design software allows Mitsubishi Electric to support
and leverage its high-power and low-noise HEMT device offering,” said Takao Ishida, manager of the wireless
communication device application engineering section at Mitsubishi Electric’s High Frequency and Optical Device
Works. “We are very pleased to offer our design kit to help support ADS users and allow them to bring superior
products to the marketplace ahead of the competition.”
“The combination of ADS and the Mitsubishi
Electric library gives our mutual customers a powerful, integrated design solution for a fast and efficient RF
design flow,” said Juergen Hartung, foundry program manager of Agilent’s EEsof EDA organization. “Our customers
are now able to enjoy the industry’s most comprehensive multi-technology design platform with the breadth of
simulation capability in ADS, including yield optimization, DFM tools and the Momentum 3-D planar EM simulator.”
Customers can also generate X-parameter* models of their circuit-level designs directly from ADS.
X-parameters provide fast and accurate behavioral modeling. These capabilities are vital to designing
high-performance RF modules and RF system-in-package components.
