Analog Devices RF tools support Hittite Microwave

BENGALURU: NASDAQ-listed manufacturer of semiconductor products and solutions Analog Devices Inc has released its RF design tools, which now provides support for Hittite Microwave Corporation products from ADI.

The ADIsimRF design tool enables engineers to model RF and microwave signal chains using devices from across ADI’s RF IC portfolio.

ADIsimRFVersion 1.9 adds 190 mixers, amplifiers, switches and attenuators, which are primarily from the Hittite portfolio.

TheADIsimPLL design tool is said to be a comprehensive and easy-to-use PLL (phased-locked loop) synthesizer design and simulation tool.

ADIsimPLLVersion 4 has been upgraded to include device models for theHMC703and HMC704PLLs and the HMC830,HMC832, ADF4355, ADF4355-2 and ADF5355integrated PLLsand VCOs (voltage-controlled oscillators).

Analog Devices acquired Hittite in 2014 and now offers a wide portfolio of RF and microwave products covering the entire signal chain, from antenna to bits and back, across the entire frequency spectrum beyond 100 GHz. Complemented by ADI’s RF, the microwave and millimeter-wave portfolio include more than 2,000 high-performance products, from functional blocks to highly-integrated solutions, development platforms and modules.
