CadenceTECHTALK: Enabling RF and mmWave Design Success with Advanced Models
In the aerospace and defense (A&D) industry, where mission-critical RF and mmWave systems must perform reliably under extreme environmental conditions, precision in simulation and modeling is non-negotiable. Traditionally, S-parameter data files have been used to characterize passive and active devices, but their limitations—especially in accurately modeling noise behavior and nonlinear performance—can introduce costly delays and reliability issues in high-stakes applications like radar systems, satellite communications, and electronic warfare platforms.
Modelithics addresses these challenges with highly accurate, scalable RF/microwave models tailored for advanced A&D design requirements. Hardware engineers working on high-frequency components can now accelerate development using:
- Nonlinear and noise models for active components such as low-noise amplifiers (LNAs) and power amplifiers used in airborne or spaceborne systems
- Parametric models for passive components that enable full parametric sweeps and tuning during simulation
- 3D electromagnetic (EM) models that capture coupling effects, thermal behavior, and layout-dependent parasitics common in high-density layouts on avionics and defense-grade boards
- Seamless integration with Cadence Microwave Office and Clarity 3D Solver, facilitating full-wave EM simulation to validate designs in real-world A&D environments
These solutions are all part of the Modelithics COMPLETE Library, ensuring compatibility with the latest A&D simulation workflows and reducing risk of hardware redesigns.
Whether you’re optimizing high-power transmit paths, miniaturizing components for airborne platforms, or pushing the envelope on stealth technology, this webinar will show you how to achieve first-pass design success, reduce development time, and meet defense standards using these industry-proven tools.
