SANTA CLARA, CA– Agilent Technologies Inc. introduces Jivaro-for-GoldenGate, designed in partnership with edXact. The parasitic model order-reduction tool is designed for use with the GoldenGate RF simulator software. It is reported to enhance RFIC simulation speed and capacity– with negligible accuracy loss.
 
“Jivaro-for-GoldenGate fills the void between circuit extraction and simulation that results from an increase in parasitic components required to model the physical reality of circuit interconnects, substrates or packages,” explains Mathias Silvant, edXact president. Combined with GoldenGate RF, Jivaro reduces memory requirements and increases simulation speed during large parasitic-dominated, post-layout netlists.
