Extra Symbols

These extra symbols may be used by placing a similar part on the schematic and double-clicking the part to display the Parts dialog box. Then click the "Symbols..." button to select a custom symbol.

Usage:

The best way to use these symbols is to place a part with a similar shape and then change the visual symbol. For CAP_POLARIZED try starting with a CAPACITOR; for SPST try using a RESISTOR with R=.001 ohms. For LED start with a DIODE and for CHASSIS_GROUND use a true GROUND. MIXER and VARACTOR are best represented by a user model.

Tip: You can duplicate a custom symbol by selecting it and pressing Ctrl+D.

Like many common parts, a short version of the symbol is available by holding the SHIFT key down while placing the part. You can select an alternate symbol, CAP_POLARIZED, just like any other extra symbol. There is also a nonlinear capacitor model (NLCAP) available for your use.

Note: Use the keyboard shortcut key "C" to place a capacitor.

Netlist syntax: CAP n1 n2 C= [Q=] [Name=]

Parameters: Capacitance (pF) Specifies the value of the capacitor in picoFarads. Capacitor Q (optional) Specifies the quality factor of the capacitor, modeled as constant with frequency. This parameter is not required, and defaults to 1 million if not specified.

Examples: CAP 1 2 C=22 CAP 3 0 C=470 Q=300 N=C1

Frequency Dependent Loss Admttance (GLOSS)

Lumped admittance with frequency dependent loss. This model can be placed either by placing a standard resistor and changing the model to GLOSS or by searching for GLOSS in the Eagleware library of the part selector. See RLOSS for a resistance version of this element.

Netlist Syntax:

GLOSS n1 n2 R0= R1= R2= [Name=] Parameters:

G0 (Siemens): Constant Admittance G1 (S/sqrt(Hz)): Admittance proportional to sqrt(frequency[Hz]) G2 (S/Hz): Admittance proportional to frequency (Hz)

Example: GLOSS 1 2 G0=2 G1=1e-3 G2=3.5e-6

The admittance at frequency f (in Hz) is given by:

G = G0 + G1 * sqrt(f) + G2*f

In the example above, the admittance at 1MHz (1e6 Hz) is

2 + 1e-3 * sqrt(1e6) + 3.5e-6 * 1e6 = 6.5 Siemens

An alternative method for creating frequency dependent resistance is to use the FREQ variable in an equation. However, the GLOSS element is preferred for the following reasons:

1. It simulates much faster than a standard resistor with frequency dependent equations.

2. When used with Cayenne transient simulation, the GLOSS element looks at the "Always Use Constant Loss" setting to avoid convolution whenever possible. If that option is checked, Cayenne will calculate the admittance at the "Most Accurate Frequency" and use that admittance at all frequencies (including DC).

Impedance Inverter (INVERTER)

K Impedance "gain", where Zin = K2 / Zload [default=50]

The Impedance Inverter or "K-inverter" is useful in the filter synthesis process to make changes in topology. The result is that the input impedance is inversely proportional to the load impedance and is scaled by the gain factor "K". Similarly, an admittance inverter or "J-inverter" is the same as an impedance inverter, when K = 1/J, where J is the admittance factor.

Modelithics Capacitor (CAP_nnnn)

Surface mount chip capacitor model with substrate-scaling capability. This model is an equivalent circuit topology that will emulate capacitor performance as a function of the substrate or printed circuit board on which it is mounted. The model is valid over a range of specific part values offered by the component manufacturer. The frequency-dependent effective series resistance (ESR) has been characterized and incorporated into the model. The fundamental resonance and up to two higher-order resonance pairs are accurately predicted.

A substrate definition must exist in the workspace and be associated with the model. Substrate dielectric constant, loss tangent, metal thickness and height will be used in the model. The model can be specified to provide an ideal element response for any part value by setting the Sim_mode parameter equal to 1.

See Modelithics Substrate-Scalable Capacitor Models data sheets for details on model development and use.

Parameters

Capacitance (pF) Specifies the nominal value of the capacitor in picoFarads. Sim_mode Specifies whether the full parasitic model is to be used (Sim_mode=0) or if an ideal element should be used (Sim_mode = 1).

Q is modeled as constant with frequency and may be specified higher or lower than the default value.

This code generates the same network as PLC. However, the frequency and capacitance are specified instead of the inductance and capacitance. This is useful for two reasons. First, networks with bandpass and bandstop structures are often ill-behaved for optimization. As the L or C is changed to adjust the L/C ratio, the frequency is perturbed. The use of this resonator code can dramatically reduce optimization time in many networks, sometimes by as much as an order of magnitude. Secondly, this code is well suited to tuning or optimizing a response while leaving a transmission zero or peak at a desired frequency.

BIP models a bipolar transistor using a voltage controlled current source plus additional components. The BIP code is based on the common emitter hybrid-pi model shown below.

Linear Devices, Controlled Sources, and Matrix Parameters

Typical parameters for a low power, low frequency, NPN bipolar transistor are:

Rbe = 1250 ohms Rce = 50,000 ohms Gm = -0.05 mhos Rbb = 250 ohms Cbe = 15 pF Cc = 1 pF

Some of the parameters are related to the emitter current, beta and Ft via simple expressions. First, the emitter diffusion resistance, a function of the emitter current, is found.

where = 25.7mV at 25 C. Then:

Rbe = (1+beta)Re

Gm = beta/[(1+beta)Re]

CBe = 1/[2pi*Ft*Re]

Modeling attempts to describe a complex physical process via a simple equivalent electrical circuit. The result is only approximate, and the errors tend to increase with frequency. Measured device data is more accurate. However, modeling is useful at lower frequencies and for special simulation purposes.

FET models a junction or insulated-gate field effect transistor using a voltage controlled current source plus additional components. FET is based on a common source, voltage controlled current source model.

An example for the ATF-101XX at 2 volts and 20 mA is

RI = 2 ohms RD = 200 ohms GM = -0.07 mhos RG = 2.5 ohms CGs = 0.25 pF CDg = 0.10 pF RS = 2 ohms CSd = 0.10 pF To = 1E-6 nanoseconds

The Wolf and Avantek models place the drain-source capacitance in slightly different positions. Also, the Avantek model includes information on chip and bond-wire inductances. The Wolf model includes a shunt R-L network at the input. In critical applications, these differences are readily incorporated in GENESYS by externally adding the appropriate components to the FET model.

Modeling describes a complex physical process via a simple equivalent electrical circuit. The result is approximate, and the error tends to increase with frequency. Measured device data is more accurate. Models are best for lower frequencies and special purposes.

Equations which reduce the model to exact equivalent Y or other parameters for use in a simulation program are quite complex. Authors (including Wolf in his derivation of Y-parameters) often make simplifying assumptions to the equations. This is not the case in GENESYS, where the program exactly matches the model schematic. Therefore, you may experience small differences in the response computed by GENESYS and other simulation programs. The differences are generally insignificant in relation to errors associated with the modeling process.
