Hi I personally prefer PA design in ADS. But most of the CMOS foundry are only available in Cadence.

Is it equally capable to use Cadence for PA design? I am only talking about schematic design, not layout.

Did you trust the foundry's spectre model, or you develop your own model?
 

Basically, ADS is better for the PA design.
regarding models, if your frequency is high (let's say higher than 20 GHz) you should develop your own models.
