These files are used for Simulation
•Use this part of the tutorial to simulate the RF
performance of your circuit. You need to include the lengths of all
lines (including the pads for soldering
elements to). These are found in the
layout section, so you will do some
back-and-forth between layout and simulation.
•Some elements are available in the standard libraries (the cap in this lab), others are not (the diode in this lab). When they are not available, you will have to “create” them using user-defined
S-parameters and lines (MLIN). These can come from data sheets (like the
HP website) or from measurements
(like for this lab).
