Passive Circuit DesignGuide

Passive Circuit DesignGuide provides you with synthesis and analysis of commonly used microstrip components familiar to microwave designers, such as branch-line couplers, Wilkinson dividers, coupled line filters, quarter-wave matching networks and lumped-element matching networks. It allows you to design simulate and optimize passive circuit components quickly and easily. Microwave circuits that previously took significant design time are now synthesized in seconds.

The DesignGuide contains SmartComponents, which includes couplers, filters, power dividers, matching networks and reactive elements. It also contains automated assistants for the design, simulation, optimization, and performance analysis of passive microstrip structures. The automation assistant includes design and simulation assistants, optimization assistant and data display of specifications. Over 45 parameterized Components are available in which schematics are synthesized with correct layout.

The following screen capture shows the passive circuit control palette with several SmartComponents and automation assistants.
