AWR iFilter Filter Synthesis tool can not generate the printed filter layout structure in ADS but only can create the circuit schematic

Hi wbqlin! In the Generate Schematic/Analysis area, are Fmin and Fmax indicated correctly? May be Fmin [Mhz]=2700 and Fmax [Mhz]=5200? In the Models and Topologies area, uncheck Use X-models for Microstrip.

Thanks for the reply. The issue is still the same no matter what frequency I enter and uncheck X-models or not. I have been trying all of them but the generated file in ADS is only schematic but not layout model.

What the problem with generating PCB topology in AWR? And then transfer it to ADS. I made a preliminary calculation of the filter based on your data, and the topology in AWR turns out to be acceptable.

Click "Layout" Button then you will see the layout associated to microstip lines
But this is not enough to design such filter. You have to use "Extraction Block" in schematic view to achieve a real layout that can be simulated in Axiem.
