Remcom has recently introduced the assimilation of XFdtd® Electromagnetic Simulation Software and Optenni Lab™ matching circuit optimization software. The integration of Optenni allows XFdtd users to create a matching network topology and initial component values for their device.
XFdtd calculates the S-parameters, and the results are sent into Optenni. Optenni then provides a selection of optimized matching circuit topologies that will meet the design criteria.
“Once the topology is chosen and physically laid out on the PCB, XFdtd’s Circuit Element Optimizer completes the matching network design process by determining the optimal component values using full wave FDTD simulation, taking electromagnetic phenomena, such as coupling, into account,” the company said.
