I just tried to open the each options in load pull measurement data import utility but I am here confused do I need to put the values at random or calculate it. In d options like contour generation, behavioral model & model verification how should I know to set up the values in order to design output matching network. There are so many (...)
In case you'll use PC as scope display this is not so important if us this one for FPGA loading ( even every time at wake up) . Anoter case if you want a stand-alone device , but in this case need to think about additional module for LCD display first and about FPGA loader as side dish. Anycase , i'd like
First, You should have the process parameters (e.g. Si:Er=11.9, Loss Tangent, and hight Every Poly's , Loss Tangent, and hight Every Metal's conductivity) Then, import the inductor's gds file to the EM simulator and Key in the process parameter above. You can use @DS's momentum, Sonet, HFSS, Microwave Office
I have a data file of a signal I captured on my oscilloscope, the data contains time and voltage for each measurement. Is it possible to import this text file into Matlab and create a DSP model that uses the data file as input and runs a filter algorithm on it and then somehow using SystemGenerator export (...)
Hello coniglioe: I really agree with Tony (tboloney). The "best em solver" depends completely on the application. There is no one EM software application or approach that solves all problems equally well. They all have strengths, they all have weaknesses. HFSS is great for many applications, but certainly not for all. I wouldn't touch it
I'm trying to build a match network from an antenna to a switch whose impedance is 50Ohm. To realize that, I first got the return loss values of the antenna in the whole frequency band, namely from 800M to 900MHz. Then I import the data into a port in ANSOFT designer. Then, I choose the center frequency of the span to make a match by the Smith Ch

Hi I have some measurements from a VNA. The VNA saved the measurement as: data00.S1 and data00.D1 How do import these in ADS2004A? I just need them in a dataset for plotting and etc. If anybody knows how please advise. Thank you. HP VNA ?? data00.S1 (...)
Hello jerdenk, Yes what "UKnowWhat" mentioned is correct get S-parameters from Spice model ... You need to just create a schematic & import the spice model & add the ideal Bias Tees & finally spcify the Bias source & complete with ports & grounds... Just sweep the project frequencies...& get the Output file as S-parameters... If you
Hi, Does anybody know how to import a simulation data from pspice to hspice and vice versa? I want to test my designed IC(hspice) with external passive components(pspice). Is that possible? please help. --andrew
Greetings, I need to optimize my structure in HFSS to get the best fit between the simulation results and measured one. When, I import the measurement data in HFSS and try to make a subtraction from simulation results it seems that HFSS does not allow me to do this so. I wonder if you guys to help me to find a solution for this (...)
Dear all, I have tried to import an MDIF file with 4-ports" builded by Sonnet em" to AWR , but I founded that the MDIF file is limited currently to 2-ports only!. Is there any idea or suggestion to import succefully a 4-potrs Mdif file.. thanks in advance
Hi all, I know how to import SnP file from some other softwares/measurement results and display in ADS. However, in case that I just have a simple Excel-like data where one column is frequency and the other column is characteristic impedance of a transmission line. How could I import and plot this (...)
Have you done the coding for mcu to send and receive data using USB? Yes, VB can save into an excel file. You have to add the excel spreadsheet component to your vb toolbox and insert it to your vb form. I think you have to use VBA for programming the excel spreadsheet form. You can make the data received through USB by the vb application to be dis
I suggest for your application using Momentum to simulate the actual capacitor geometry you are using. You can import your gdsII file directly into the ADS layout to do this. If you define your silicon substrate losses correctly and also the process layers then you will get a very accurate result. I simulate complete MMICs this way with excelle
well, the freq. domain solver in MWS is lagging far behind the solver in HFSS and that is quite understndable. I can understand the folks in MWS to be "all inclusive" but sorry to tell'em there is no such thing. And will never be. And that's the whole beauty - else we will be hostages in their hands. The problem with the separation of the problem
do you want to use parts of an existing schematic in your new project ? and later make a pcb of it ? or you only want to import a part of an existing pcb, without to have a forward/back annotation with schematic ?
Hi Eirp, 1.5G? It must be quite a big structure! 8O What were your mesh settings? I noticed that CST uses a lot more mesh cells if you haven´t got a planar structure (such as a curved body of an aircraft) I had to use staircase mesh for the imported sheet body. Till now, I still haven´t got the hang of disabling automatic mesh
Does anybody has experience importing PADS PCB file to MW simulator like momentum? This has nothing to do with this topic, please start a new topic for this instead
Hi all, I have a problem with importing graph into Microwave office and hope that someone can help. I have receive some impedance measurements for an antenna. The data of real impedance and imaginary impedance are in seperate files. No s1p files. How do I import it into microwave office to plot it in the smith chart. I (...)
rautio, good info on the dembedding function. Will definitely check out your paper in the MTT Trans. All this brings me to the next logical question, and feel free to comment on the sonnet package. Must every pad we wish to characterize first be terminated in a 50ohm tline which then is deembedded back to the pad? Seems like a lot of wor
That's Protel 99SE's schematics format, you can create a new design and import the schematics to the design. also you can use Potel DXP to open the schematics file directly. if you don't have them, please let me know, I will create the PDF...
Hi, everyone. I have a question about the electrical delay related to VNA. In doing S parameters measurement by Network Analyzer, We can get the electrical delays. The HP VNA gives the delay represented by time. However, the output of the S parameter seems doesn't have this information of delay. If I directly using the S parameter
hi, everybody. now i am designing a LNA. i have the data sheet of the transistor and the S parameter, but the transistor is not in the compenent library of the @DS. my question is how to do with @DS in the first step and the flow of designing. to use the S2P compenent and then import the .s2p???? and how to design the match network?
hi, i design an antenna using CST. Now i want to design rectifier part using ADS. the problem is 1) how to import the antenna s parameter data from CST to SNP file, so i can use SNP in ADS during rectifier design or any technique that i can use? regards
Hi antenna_abc, once you have your desired result on screen press: Save/Recall -> Save file formats -> choose file type (Graphic/Text) -> Save file. Make sure you have a formatted 3.25'' disk inside. Good luck, P. If using older version of hp8753(A?), can only save in hpgl-format, not in (ugly) jpeg as above
1. Program 16F877A with firmware in PICs zip. Default settings Do the same for 18F4550, but use the firmware with MCLR dissabled. Use the firmwares.zip file attached. I got them from this thread. Have some snapshot of how settings are. If settings aren't the same, maybe .hex is corrupted (it happened to me) DO NO M
hi all when i am importing i am getting PLACE_BOUND_TOP and DFA_BOUND_TOP that fine but i want change these Shapes Dimension when importing how to change??? plz tell me??? ranga
Hi Maybe a trivial question.... I have an S-parameter file containing data for a three port balun. One input port is 50 ohm and the two output ports are 25 ohm. I can see in the touchstone file from the vendor that it is measured in 50 ohm inviroment. BUT when I import the touchstone file in Designer I get the correct amplitude and phase ba
You need to understand how the process works in any EDA software. In Altium Designer, as in most EDA packages, everything is driven from the schematic. Once the schematic is complete, you compile it. That is Altium's word for doing an electrical rules check, and generating the netlist. Once the schematic has been complied, you import the resu
but please stick to the facts if you want to denigrate the ICD2. My bad, if I mislead you. All over all, ICD2 and PICkit 2, I love them both. I have many years with ICD2 in my career life, way too many. PICkit 2 is a new friend to me, now it has been an important tool for my daily life too (software development, programming,
Hello sekharareddy, Good question...FYI the S-parameters already measured at perticular bias conditions, hence their is no need of biasing network for the analysis as it does not take accont in circuit simulation (if you add).... in this case, this device is measured at following bias conditions... ! Motorola ! MBC13720 High IP3 mode, Vcc
16-18 bits give us more acurate data nothing more right VVV? "i know the acurate data is the most import. thing in this case" but i like to ask. thanx
The latest Genesis seems to borrow technologies from ADS: Momentum, 3D viewer, X-parameters, layout import/export, etc. The circuit synthesis capabilities are better than MWO and for 1/3 the price. But Genesis does not do MMIC, only RF board. For RF board design, there is probably no better tool out there at the price of Genesis.
Hello danesh, It is very simple... import the schematic or S-parameter of the previous filter design to current project, if the previous version of filter already exists in the same project then no need to import... Then go to Add New Graph & Add New measurements such as S-Parameters & choose the data source as (...)
Hey Professional Guys, Plz suggest me a suitable sensor(Transducer) to interface with AVR controller to sense the position of the object with in the range of 1 meter. There are many available on internet but mostly unavailable in PAKISTAN. So xperts from PAKISTAN plz suggest one which is available in local market. And international Users may
hello Yakihimo, yes, i have some experience in doing loadpull simulations using AWR Microwave Office (MWO)... To read data files .lp, .sp files just right click on the data Files in project browser then select import data files & set the file type to Text files... Then select the .lp file & add the Smith chart graph & (...)
what is the offset pin? cause I adjust the pot as much as possible... have tried 20K pot, 100K pot and 500K pot... none give me zero offset voltage on pin3... output on pin6 never changes... always the same value except if I exclude the pot from cct its value jumps by 100mV... but its not import I guess... cause that offset is optional as it says o
Hi all, I am trying to load Hex files to MATLAB. I have measurements from 8 sensors each 1 m second. Each sensor measurement is giving me 8 bytes (Example 3EF1)....How can i used matlab to import the file (continuously..i mean live measurement from the serial port) and then convert it to decimal version... example of the (...)
Hi pancho_hideboo, For the BER, do you have a good explanation on it ? I found difficult to understand... I see that you are familiar with many things. For the transistor, i used the import Netlist because the manufacturer provides the SPICE parameters and in my mind i thought just with import all things is okay. But as you can see, even i u
Here are the simulation results I get with 1k. Be careful with the Pspice model from TI - they have the pins in a non-standard order. With 2.78V on the output, assuming 2.2k feedback you have nearly 1.3mA of DC photocurrent. That shouldn't be enough to cause a problem but the loaded output swing of the opamp is only +/-3.3V typical, so you are
From 9.5GHz to 6.5GHz is a lot, and I don think is about Er change of the material (this change can shift the frequency). At 9.5GHz parasitics of components are very important, and also their placement on the PCB. Ideally would be to have the S-parameters of each lumped component used, but sometimes is hard to get them up to this frequency. Momen
You can also compare simulation and measurement results in ADS.. import your s2p file by using file utility and create a new dataset for instance "meas.result.ds" and load s-parameter from this dataset and simulation result dataset on a single graph..
import the test files into Excel (comma delimited), save the xls file and use the Matlab xlsread function to read the xls file ---------- Post added at 20:44 ---------- Previous post was at 20:07 ---------- You can use csvread in Matlab to read a comma separated variable file
Hi, everyone. I have a problem here. I made a series of cavities and did some measurement. I heard that if I import the import the measured power data(theta, phi) into HFSS, he can plot the 3d pattern for me. Also, he can compute the directivity based on this. Is it true? Can anybody tell me how to achieve this? Thanks a lot.
In a separate schematic window, import S parameters of both Tline and LNA to s2p data items, connect ports to them and measure Zin. Then you will have your Zin and can use it in your current schematic
thanks for your help. Actually I want to import the S parameter measurement result into ADS, and do the loadpull to see what is the best performance I can get no matter what output impedace it is. I know it seemed a little wield, but anyway, is it possible to do this in ADS? Thanks you.
i know how to create non ideal models but how do we compensate for this in filters. All L/C manufactures I know about characterize the components by two port VNA measurement. It results in S-parameters useable to calculate real behavior in filters, also beyond SFR. Most simulation tools can import these parameters for calculating a
Have a look at this document, it shows how to import and play around the S-parameter file in ADS!!!
