Description
This unique easy-to-use new software is an integration of tools and simulators that help you solve the most common feedforward predistorted amplifier design equations, including calculating gain and loop balance, optimum coupling ratios, and more. It includes the tools you need everyday, such as a microstrip calculator and parallel coupler designer, to relieve you of lengthy calculations and help you predict the performance of a complex amplifier before all the blocks are together. PACAD also features a nonlinearity simulator that simulates the intermodulation characteristics of an amplifier given the amplifier's compression gain and phase curves. This important tool helps calculate the required characteristics of an optimum predistortion block for you, and simulates the combination of predistortion and amplifier in terms of intermodulation products - taking the guesswork out of predistortion block design. System Requirements: Intel compatible PC, 8Mb RAM (16 Mb recommended), Win 95 (Win 98/NT recommended).
