Is this the most comprehensive collection of RF project design tools? [Copy link]

Qorvo provides a comprehensive list of RF project design tools in 'Qorvo Design Tools - The Go-to Resource for RF Projects' . Let's take a look at some of them.

Qorvo MatchCalc

This easy-to-use RF/microwave matching calculator can be easily matched with S1P and S2P files.

Qorvo MatchCalc is a free, downloadable RF/microwave matching calculator designed to provide ideal tunable passive component values. The calculator displays input and output matched impedances (measured on a network analyzer) in a 50 ohm test environment.

Some key features include

• Displays insertion loss/gain for S1P and S2P files

• Real-time optimization and tuning

• Graph Marking

• Save static graphs using the snapshot function

• Transmission Line Calculator

• Return loss plots for all input and output ports

• Supports creation of matching reports in Word, and a through-line function showing input source impedance and output load.

Modelithics Qorvo GaN Library

The Modelithics Qorvo GaN Library contains highly accurate nonlinear simulation models of Qorvo GaN transistor devices.

Qorvo has collaborated with Modelithics to provide designers with highly accurate nonlinear simulation models of Qorvo GaN transistor devices. The Modelithics Qorvo GaN library was developed using best-in-class measurement and modeling techniques. Modelithics is known for providing high-level, high-level functional simulation models with high accuracy, based on measurements, and also provides powerful scaling of substrate component values to facilitate high-frequency design. The Modelithics model library integrates seamlessly with the latest electronic design automation (EDA) simulation tools and provides datasheets of model information.

3 Carrier aggregation maximum power consumption reduction calculator

Uplink carrier aggregation tool that calculates the maximum power consumption reduction across three component carriers.

The maximum output power requirements for LTE user equipment are defined by the 3GPP TS 36.521 specification, which contains requirements for maximum output power and output power tolerance. This calculator allows you to determine the maximum power consumption reduction for the three component carriers.

2 Carrier aggregation maximum power consumption reduction calculator

Uplink carrier aggregation tool that calculates the maximum power consumption reduction for two component carriers.

Similar to the calculator above, this calculator enables you to determine the maximum power consumption reduction for two component carriers instead of three.

Bandpass Filter Response Calculator

View and analyze Butterworth and Chebyshev filter performance using frequency input.

This tool uses frequency input to help analyze Butterworth and Chebyshev filter responses. To use the calculator, simply change the upper and lower frequency limits and the order. For Chebyshev filter design, enter the ripple in dB. As you move to another input field, the output value and graph automatically update to show the filter's response.

Cascade calculator (active/passive)

Analyze system performance including small signal gain, noise figure, 1 dB compression point, and output IP3.

The Cascade Calculator provides system-level performance values for gain, noise figure (NF), P1dB compression, and output IP3 for up to 20 cascaded RF passive and active components in a signal chain.

This is all I have to say here. I personally think Qorvo is really good and the design tools they provide are very comprehensive. Compared with other companies, they really help engineers a lot in their design progress. What do you think?
