SmartSpice RF

SmartSpiceRF Harmonic Balance Based RF Simulator SmartSpiceRF Harmonic Balance based simulator provides a complete set of steady-state large-signal analyses and measurements to design GHz range RF ICs driven with multi-tone sources. It accurately and efficiently simulates harmonic distortion, intermodulation products, gains, noise, oscillator's phase noise in non-linear circuits using SPICE netlists. Key Features Performs complete set of periodic and quasi-periodic steady-state analyses for large-signal and small-signal applications - each with full parametric sweep and Monte Carlo control parameters Time-domain Shooting method simulation of periodic steady-state of highly nonlinear circuits Time-Frequency domain Envelope analysis of circuits driven by digitally modulated sources A complete set of digitally modulated signals is supported together with all SmartSpice models for large-signal, small-signal, noise, and parametric analysis Provides simulations and measurements of the spectral regrowth, I/Q parameters, ACPR, NPR, EVM, BER in amplifiers/mixers, and characterization of the transmission link quality in communications systems, etc. Employs powerful parametric optimizer for gains, matching networks, IP3, and power dissipation for new circuit design or process migration Applications include high frequency amplifiers, mixers, multipliers, oscillators, VCOs, AGCs, PLLs, Muxs, Demuxs, Clocks, CDRs and other RF circuits
