If you make a hybrid coupler or wilkinson power divider in ADS layout, is it possible to have this imported into Orcad.
Here I mean to have it as an component with ports so I can use it in Orcad Capture?
1. Export your structure as DXF-format. It is important to check that the exported and the imported units are the same. This can be checked in the “maxdxf.ini” file in Orcad. Here you can set up the correct scaling it uses for import structures. The default unit is in Mills.
2. It is automatically imported and saved as a *.MAX-file
3. Open your newly saved Max-file, but then “save as” library *.llb and then close the project.
4. Now open your *.Max-file and open the library manager. You will now see your saved component at the top of the library manager. When you click on the library there are two other components which you can just delete called “Default” and “U1”. The imported design (“U1_2”) has been change to an obstacle. Now you can fill in copper (copper area) and place pins at the desired locations. The footprint can also be saved in another library.
5. The only thing that is missing is to make a Capture symbol and make a netlist and you are done.
