Keysight EEsof EDA W2300 Harmonic Balance Element
小冊子
The Harmonic Balance (HB) simulator in ADS is the most powerful implementation of the harmonic balance algorithm for non-linear circuit and system simulation on the market. Its capabilities include:
- Unlimited multi-tone, frequency-domain non-linear simulation and optimization.
- Phase-noise analysis.
- Load- and source-pull analysis.
- X-parameter non-linear model simulation under steady-state excitation.
- Power ampliier design guide to synthesize, design and simulate popular amplifier topologies.
- Mixer design guide to synthesize, design and simulate popular mixer topologies.
- Oscillator design guide to synthesize, design, and simulate popular oscillator topologies.
- Analog model development kit to develop customized non-linear behavioral models.
Not all Harmonic Balance simulators equally deliver the combination of convergence, speed, accuracy, and capacity. The ADS Harmonic Balance Element incorporates ingenious automated strategies and algorithms to achieve convergence under the most dificult non-linear conditions that other Harmonic Balance simulators cannot handle. Keysight’s Harmonic Balance Element simulates X-parameter models, the latest Keysight invention that captures the full non-linear characteristics from a non-linear vector network analyzer (NVNA) measurement. The technology lets designers do accurate non-linear designs with measured X-parameters of off-the-shelf components. This capability is unique in the industry. The simulator’s speed and capacity come from the powerful alliance of advanced matrix algorithms and parallel computations on multi-core computers. This allows designers to interactively tune and optimize even the largest non-linear designs quickly.
