IVCAD is a software dedicated to the test and modeling of RF transistors.
It enables efficient design of MMIC circuits before the circuit goes into production. It considerably reduces the risk of obtaining measurement results that differ from those obtained in simulation.
Thanks to accurate transistor models, consistent device characterization and circuit stability analysis, it enables our customers to avoid iterative design flows, costly and time-consuming retro-engineering phases.
IVCAD’s Key Features
IVCAD Device Characterization is a comprehensive and advanced measurement platform which enables RF & Microwave component characterization, through pulsed IV , S parameters and load pull measurements.
IVCAD Compact Modeling provides an intuitive compact modeling wizard to help extract LDMOS and IIIV transistor models using pulsed IV and pulsed S parameter measurements.
IVCAD EPHD Modeling is a turnkey black-box modeling solution based on load pull measurements which overcomes the challenge of extracting packaged or on-wafer transistors models in a short time. It enables accurate load pull simulation with commercial harmonic balance simulators.
IVCAD can generate an impressive amount of data in a short period of time, thus the visualization module is a powerful tool used to highlight in few steps the key information.
Designs that lead to unstable MMIC circuits are expensive and extremely time consuming. STAN tool secures your design flow, and reveals hidden circuit instabilities in linear or nonlinear operating conditions.
