Business Wire
Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) today announced the release of a new
version of its popular ADIsimRF™ design tool. The free design tool
is the software accompaniment to ADI's complete portfolio of
RF-to-digital functional blocks, allowing engineers to model RF
signal chains using devices from across ADI's RF IC and data
converter portfolio. ADIsimRF Version 1.7 adds a number of new
device models along with enhanced support for inter-stage mismatch
calculations. The design tool provides calculations for the most
important parameters within an RF signal chain, including cascaded
gain, noise figure, IP3, P1dB, and total power consumption. The
ADIsimRF design tool contains embedded data from many of ADI's RF
ICs and data converters, which designers can easily access using
pull-down menus to assist in component selection.

ADIsimRF Version 1.7 Key Features:
The new version of the ADIsimRF design tool includes significant
enhancements to inter-stage mismatch calculations. One of the
tool’s unique capabilities as an RF signal chain calculator is its
ability to calculate scalar mismatch loss that results when
two adjacent devices have different output and input impedances. In
ADIsimRF Version 1.7, device models for many non-50 Ohm devices
such as I/Q Demodulators, VGAs and ADC Drivers have been tweaked in
order to take full advantage of the tool’s ability to factor the
effect of inter-stage mismatch into cascaded IP3, P1dB, gain and
noise figure calculations. The new version also adds device models
for ADI’s latest RF ICs, including the ADRF6755 I/Q Modulator and
the ADL5324, ADL5321 and ADL5320 Driver Amplifiers.
