How to extract SMT lumped inductors and capacitors from a schematic to EM simulation using AWR software?

SL202502287543 1 month ago

Hello everyone. I would like to design a quasi-lumped filter using microstrip lines; however, some values of the lumped components are quite large. Thus, I want to use some SMT components to replace corresponding distributed microstrip lines. Some examples related to the Wilkinson Power Divider provide an extraction method for lumped resistors; however, I still cannot determine how to convert the lumped inductors and capacitors into practical SMT devices within an EM simulation environment. Could you give some suggestions about it? Many thanks!

Which tool are you using? Checking in case I need to move this to a different forum...

Hi Andrew,

I'm using AWR with a schematic simulation. Then EM Extract tool with AXIEM solver is adopted to extract EM model.

OK - I moved to the AWR Design Environment forum - as that's more focused on topics related to this tool.
