GoldenGate’s unique algorithms are optimized for the challenging demands of modern complex radio design. These demands require a simulator with capabilities not previously available. GoldenGate addresses these demands with the ability to converge on complete transceivers with the speed to enable full characterization prior to tape out. MIXEr ANALYSIS Mixers are the fundamental block for upconversion or downconversion of signals in a transceiver. GoldenGate efficiently ana- lyzes the effects of this frequency translation by accurately measuring the conversion gain, noise figure (with and without blocking signals), small signal noise, linearity (ip2/ip3) and spurious responses. Furthermore, modern low-if architectures require the lo and carrier frequencies to be very close together. ip3 for low-IF mixer GoldenGate’s harmonic-balance capabilities allow the designer to...

Advanced Design System 2011.05 Release Notes For general information about Advanced Design System (ADS), visit Agilent EEsof product web-page at•http://www.agilent.com/find/eesof-products Key Features Printing•There have been a number of improvements to printing for Schematic, Layout, and Data Display. In most cases, these improvements are for all platforms, while some improvements are for Linux and Solaris to make them equivalent to the Windows platform. ◦You can now easily create pdf and postscript files on all platforms.◦rinting now correctly handles colors, fill patterns, transparency levels, and line thickness.◦The print output will now be scaled properly to take advantage of the full width of the paper, eliminating excess white space.◦When you select an area to print, it will now be output correctly clipping any...

Means of synthesis of high-performance FPGA-type PLD and FPGA, optimized in terms of ease of use and high quality results. Supports a multi-million-programmable systems-on-Chip (FPSoC) the last generation. Precision RTL Synthesis receive input on the project as a description in VHDL or Verilog and implements logic synthesis with the defined limits, based on built-in libraries of manufacturers. The package has a built-in static timing analysis, the ability to analyze and debug in an incremental mode, and an intuitive user interface makes it easy to manage the process of fusion as an experienced engineer, and beginner. Precision RTL Synthesis includes a unique optimization algorithm – Architecture Signature Extraction (ASE), which automatically selects the most critical in the project area, limiting the...

JMAG-Designer Ver.10.4 ReleasedJMAG version 10.4 has been released.Some of the magnificent features that have been implemented are indicated below. One of the main features of JMAG version 10.4 is a new configuration to reduce the procedures required to perform multiple calculations. This type of configuration is vital when designing and evaluating machines. Designs need to be examined by evaluating a multitude of possible dimensions to achieve the highest quality possible. The number of dimensions that are analyzed is directly related to the quality of the design. JMAG version 10.4 encompasses features to systemize and simplify the evaluation and design process. At the core of this version of JMAG are parametric analyses, analysis templates, and scripting functions. Investigating a Multitude of...
