How to define or implement the chip resistor in IE3D software?
i am trying to make wilkinson power divider (equal or unequal power division) in IE3D , but don't know how to define or implement the chip resistor in IE3D software.
if anybody has any idea or tutorial example , kindly share ion this forum.
with regards
abhi
Dear Abhi,
if you have an S-parameter file of the chip resistor, in the IE3D simulation you leave away the resistor and insert two localized internal ports instead. After the IE3D simulation you can then in Modua connect the resistor S-parameter file to the two internal ports.
If you rather mean a resistive area which is manufactured together with the copper metalisation, then you can define a new metal type with the desired sheet impedance in the Basic Parameters window and draw a polygon in the layout for the resistor which references the new metal type.

hey hv u designed wilkinson power dividre which transmission line u hv used cpw or microstrip if u hv designed nd got the desired result then plzz reply me
