Modeliithics, Knowles to develop RF, mmWave capacitor models

By rtraiger | April 2, 2024

Modelithics welcomes Knowles Precision Devices into the Modelithics Vendor Partner (MVP) Program at the Sponsoring level. Knowles is a provider of a wide range of highly engineered capacitors and other components (covering microwave to millimeter-wave frequencies) intended for use in critical applications, including electric vehicles and new energy market segments.

Through the MVP program, Knowles and Modelithics are collaborating to accelerate the product development process for today’s design engineers by providing world-class data along with highly accurate and scalable models.

A collection of models for Knowles capacitors is available in the Modelithics COMPLETE Library, including a Microwave Global Model for the Knowles Milli-Cap surface-mount broadband capacitor. This model is validated up to 40 GHz and includes Modelithics advanced model features such as part-value, substrate, and pad-dimension scalability.

Designers can specify the substrate and solder-pad dimensions (or completely de-embed the solder pads for use in EM/circuit co-simulations). Part-value scalability also enables Microwave Global Models to be ideal for tuning and optimization. Furthermore, Microwave Global Models compensate for real-world parasitic effects, enabling first-pass success for PCB-based designs.

In addition, the Modelithics COMPLETE+3D Library for Ansys HFSS includes 3D EM geometry models for Knowles capacitors. The integration of Modelithics’ highly accurate and scalable parasitic models into the 3D design environment allows for a seamless EM/circuit co-simulation process, resulting in an accurate model-to-measurement agreements and fewer design iterations.

As a Sponsoring MVP, Knowles is sponsoring FREE 90-day use of Modelithics models for Knowles components.
