Using S-Parameter Files to Model Small- and Large-Signal Amplifier Performance in ADS® This application note was prepared in response to recent customer requests for guidance on using ADS to model the small- and large-signal performance of Mini-Circuits amplifiers based on published S-Parameter data in .s2p format. The following sections describe how to use .sNp and...

The Frequency Diplexer as a Combiner Frequency diplexers (henceforth simply diplexers) serve to either divide (demultiplex) the frequency spectrum into two major sub-bands or perform the complementary function of frequency multiplexing where the two sub-bands are combined to form a full frequency spectrum. The focus of this article is the latter, the combining of two...
