PathWave RF Synthesis 2023 continues to offer the industry’s most complete RF circuit and system synthesis capabilities in an affordable, accurate and easy-to-use simulation software that you’ve come to love. This release delivers new and enhanced capabilities to improve productivity and usability for RF and Microwave circuit and system designers.
MDIF Import
The new MDIF import feature allows for importing multiple files and merging data blocks of the same name in a single dataset. That multidimensional data can then be sliced or interpolated using new functions. Another new feature is Interpolated Dataset where a new dataset can be created from the imported data by interpolating all the variables at once.

Python Scripting Enhancements
Python scripting adds support for graphs and high resolution graph image capture function. The Python API now supports creating workspace variables; renaming designs and analysis; and manipulating graphs and datasets. The Visual Source Code extension adds powerful editing and debugging capabilities for creating Python scripts.
Graph Enhancements
Graphing and plotting of data now include convenient draggable markers to quickly read off trace values directly. This is in addition to the previous sequential stepping with the arrow keys for precision placement of markers.
Intelligent auto scaling automatically selects the most appropriate units and step size that are divisible by 1, 2, 5 or 10 for fast visual interpolation and interpretation of plotted data.

EM-Link Enhancements
EM-Link enables EM effects of RF System PCB board layout such as undesired signal coupling and feedback from every system node to any specific system node to be included in system simulation. Genesys 2023 improves the usability in setting up this useful analysis.
Updated Modelithics SELECT(+) Vendor Parts Library
Provides free updated scalable models for nonlinear simulation and Vendor Parts Synthesis (VPS) capabilities.
