Modelithics, a developer of high-accuracy RF and microwave active & passive simulation models for use in EDA tools has announced the release of the latest version, v22.5, of the Modelithics COMPLETE Library for use with Keysight Technologies’ PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS).
New nonlinear models for 7 Qorvo GaAs pHEMT devices are another major aspect of version 22.5. These models are validated to 40 GHz and include advanced features like self-heating and ambient temperature effects. In addition, the release includes a new nonlinear model for the Mini-Circuits TAV2-501+ E-pHEMT transistor. This model is validated to 15 GHz and is both substrate and temperature scalable. Finally, new models are also available for Transcom’s TC2381 and TC2384 pHEMT transistors.
This version also adds a total of 26 new models representing over 40 individual components to the Modelithics COMPLETE Library. With these new additions, the Modelithics COMPLETE Library now includes over 825 models that represent over 25,000 passive and active RF/microwave components.
Version 22.5 includes new scalable Microwave Global Models™ for the Kyocera-AVX 550Z and 550U capacitor series and UBR0402 resistor series. Also included are new Microwave Global Models for Vishay’s FCHP0402xxxBGT and FCHP0402xxxBTT resistor series and Tecdia’s HBCR22AY20X10X5A02 and HBC2R2KY20X10X5A02 variable capacitors. Version 22.5 also adds new models for the CA0505D attenuator series and several resistors from Smiths Interconnect along with new S-parameter models for MACOM’s MACP-011088 coupler, MAPD-011062 splitter, and MABA-011125 transformer.
Through the Modelithics Vendor Partner (MVP) Program, free model use is being sponsored by Kyocera-AVX, MACOM, Mini-Circuits, Qorvo, Smiths Interconnect, Tecdia, Vishay, and many others.
