Hi All,

I have just finished a RFPA design using Cadence.
For a typical RFPA design, what simulations do I have to run to get some standard parameters?
Like IP3, spectral regrowth, maximum output power all that?

Thank you.

Best Regards,

Hi,
You should perform at least an harmonic balance 1 tone simulation to get Gain, PAE and Pout of your RFPA?

I must say I don't realize how did you do to finish a design without any circuit simulation...
 

Hi,

I have done some simulation using SpctreRF. I wonder if there are some simulation can be run from virtuoso schematic. I hope you can provide some details on the simulations that can be run.
thank you.

Best Regards,
