RF Integration collaborate with Agilent in Advanced Radio Frequency IC (RFIC) development
RF Integration provides custom solutions to the defence, industrial and consumer markets and focuses on improving RF performance, power consumption, cost and size. Working with SiGe, CMOS, GaAs or GaN processes in advanced process nodes below 65nm they have opted to use the simulation accuracy, capacity and performance benefits offered by GoldenGate in their customized RF Systems-on-a-Chip.
Benchmarking tests have shown a 50% decrease on previous simulation times of full and transmitter chains.
U.S. firm Agilent Technologies offers technical solutions to the compound semiconductor, electronics and chemical analysis sectors and serves customers in over 110 countries. GoldenGate is a subsidiary of Agilent’s RFIC simulation, analysis and verification products that also includes Momentum for 3-D planar electromagnetic simulation and Ptolemy Wireless Test Benches for system level. The GoldenGate suite links the RF system, subsystem, and component-level design and analysis in a unique RFIC design flow.
“RF Integration’s full transmitter and receiver chains simulation results tell a compelling story. We are pleased that they selected GoldenGate for the design of their high-performance RF products” said Paul Colestock, RFIC product manager, with Agilent’s EEsof EDA organization.
