RF & Synthesis Tools

Design Tool

• ADIsimRF

  ADIsimRF is an easy-to-use RF signal chain calculator. Cascaded gain, noise, distortion and power consumption can be calculated, plotted and exported for signal chains with up to 50 stages. ADIsimRF also includes an extensive data base of device models for ADI’s RF and mixed signal components.

• Wireless Cascaded Gain and Noise Figure ZIP

  Cascaded Noise Figure Calculation of Wireless system.

• ISM-RF Crystal Calculator XLS

  ISM-RF Baseband Calculator is a tool for selecting and configuring the Sallen-Key data filter and the data slicer for various industrial/scientific/medical receivers.

• Calculating Equivalent Parallel Impedance ZIP

  Calculate the equivalent parallel impedance (R//) and capacitance (C//) of a differential one port device by simply entering the S-Parameters in polar form.

• Calculating Transmitted Power Using Return Loss ZIP

  Reflected power and transmitted power are calculated based on the return loss.

• ISM-RF Baseband Calculator XLS

  ISM-RF Crystal Calculator workbook is a tool for properly selecting and configuring the reference oscillator for various industrial/scientific/medical radios.

• Power Conversion Table (RF Power Conversion) ZIP

  Convert dBm, mw to voltage and vice versa in a 50Ω RF system.

• ADIsimPLL™

  ADIsimPLL enables the rapid and reliable evaluation of new high performance PLL products from ADI. It is the most comprehensive PLL Synthesizer design and simulation tool available today. Simulations performed include all key non-linear effects that are significant in affecting PLL performance. ADIsimPLL removes at least one iteration from the design process, thereby speeding the design- to-market.

• ADIsimFrequency Planner Tool

  For those developers dealing with integer boundary spurs from Analog’s PLL synthesizers, the best solution is ADIsimFrequencyPlanner. The frequency planner quickly analyzes the PFD frequency for a user’s output requirements and then optimizes the frequency of each output to identify the highest contributing integer boundary spur performance.

• ADIsimCLK Design and Evaluation Software

  ADIsimCLK is the design tool developed specifically for Analog Devices' range of ultra-low jitter clock distribution and clock generation products. Whether your application is in wireless infrastructure, instrumentation, networking, broadband, ATE or other areas demanding predictable clock performance, ADIsimCLK will enable you to rapidly develop, evaluate and optimize your design.

• RF Impedance Matching Calculator

  Calculates the network to match a line to a specific complex load.

• ADIsimSRD Design Studio

  Analog Devices ADIsimSRD Design Studio is a very powerful tool allowing real-time simulation and optimization of many of the parameters in a typical wireless system using the ADF7xxx family of transceivers and transmitters.

• VRMS/dBm/dBu/dBV calculators

  A utility to convert between standard units of power measurement and signal strength.

• ADIsimDDS (Direct Digital Synthesis)

  ADIsimDDS uses mathematical equations to model and illustrate the overall performance of the selected device. ADIsimDDS calculates the required FTW, given the reference clock frequency and desired output frequency. This tool also models an estimate of the overall spectral performance, and allows the user to explore the effects of external reconstruction filters.
