W2349EP Datasheet, PDF (4/5 Pages) Keysight Technologies – ADS Electro-Thermal Simulator

04 | Keysight | W2349EP/ET ADS Electro-Thermal Simulator - Data Sheet
Key Features
Requirements
– Support for steady-state (Harmonic Balance, DC, AC, and
S-parameter) analyses
– Support for Transient and Circuit Envelope analyses
– Support for a wide range of GaAs, GaN, Si, SiGe, and other
process technologies
– 2-D and 3-D temperature maps, including “movie mode” for
transient simulations
– Thermal effects of the IC package, and even printed circuit
board (PCB), can be included using one of two methods:
– Including the package/PCB in the ADS layout design
– Specifying boundary conditions at the IC interface that
represent the overall thermal conductivities of the pack-
age/PCB
– OS platform support: Linux 64-bit (Windows support may be
offered in a future release)
– An electrothermal simulation requires a synchronized IC sche-
matic/layout design in ADS
– IC Process Design Kit requirements:
– Thermal tech ile that speciies thermal properties of each
process layer
– Heat source indicators for each IC layout
component
