SimSurfing
Notification of using data of some RF inductors.
We have replaced internal device data by high pecision model for some RF inductor in October 3, 2011.
We have also enabled the function to download Netlist (Spice equivalent circuit model) file for devices which is replaced by new data.
You can download Netlist file by clicking [Netlist] button in the right-top of window.
Devices which has adopted high precision model (updated October 3,2011)
- LQP03TN series
- LQG15HS series
- LQG15HS series
- LQG15HH series
Other series will be updated in order.
