Murata Manufacturing Co. said that providing a design kit for Ansoft Designer "will ensure that our current and future customers will have the necessary elements to develop the next generation of ultra-miniature telecommunication products with greater accuracy."

The device library contains proprietary equivalent simulation models of Murata's discrete capacitors and coil inductors, for use in general-purpose high-frequency designs. The devices are used in RF circuits and subsystems found in many commercial and military applications, the companies said.

The library includes vendor-authorized device models directly as ready-to-use components, which is said to improve accuracy.

The library is available for free (click here).
