Overview:
The latest release of ADS features a rich set of technologies for rigorous, accurate and robust transient (SPICE) simulation of high speed circuits. This talk will focus on breakthrough improvements to the high frequency transient simulation technology in ADS, introducing several powerful techniques for causality correction and passivity enforcement. We discuss new and rigorous approaches to delay causality enforcement and optimal techniques for frequency response preservation. We also offer practical tips for proper formulation of a class of passive models, resulting in dramatically improved performance in transient simulations. Several real-world examples, including measured data comparisons, will be used to illustrate the latest improvements to our simulation technology.
