Description

Microwave Office facilitates the design of various RF passive components, including filters, couplers, and attenuators, along with active devices functioning under small-signal (AC) conditions, such as low noise and buffer amplifiers. Its linear configuration allows for the simulation of S-parameters (Y/Z/H/ABCD), small-signal gain, linear stability, noise figure, return loss, and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), complemented by features like real-time tuning, optimization, and yield analysis. Each E-series Microwave Office portfolio encompasses synchronous schematic and layout editors, 2D and 3D viewers, and extensive libraries featuring high-frequency distributed transmission models, as well as surface-mount vendor component RF models complete with footprints. Additionally, it offers measurement-based simulations and RF plotting capabilities. Microwave Office PCB further enhances the design process by enabling both linear and nonlinear RF circuit design through the advanced APLAC HB simulator, which provides powerful multi-rate HB, transient-assisted HB, and time-variant simulation engines for comprehensive RF/microwave circuit analysis. This extensive toolset empowers engineers to push the boundaries of RF design and streamline their development workflows effectively.

Description

Electromagnetic (EM) simulation provides valuable insights prior to the physical prototyping stage. Tailor your EM simulations to enhance both speed and precision. Seamlessly integrate EM analysis with your circuit simulations to boost overall efficiency. While EM simulations can often require several hours to complete, you can significantly reduce both import and export times by linking your EM simulation software with PathWave Circuit Design software. This integration allows you to maximize your workflow by combining EM analysis with circuit simulations effectively. The 3D EM solid modeling environment enables the creation of custom 3D objects and supports the import of existing models from various CAD platforms. This is essential for preparing a 3D geometry for 3DEM simulation, which involves defining ports, boundary conditions, and material properties. Additionally, the environment includes a Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulator, which is vital for compliance testing regarding Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) and Hearing Aid Compatibility (HAC), ensuring that your designs meet necessary regulatory standards. By utilizing these advanced features, you can streamline your design process and enhance the effectiveness of your electromagnetic analysis.
