AWR, EAGLEWARE, ETC Which one ? - RF Cafe Forums
Because of the high maintenance needed to monitor and filter spammers from the RF Cafe Forums, I decided that it would be best to just archive the pages to make all the good information posted in the past available for review. It is unfortunate that the scumbags of the world ruin an otherwise useful venue for people wanting to exchanged useful ideas and views. It seems that the more formal social media like Facebook pretty much dominate this kind of venue anymore anyway, so if you would like to post something on RF Cafe's Facebook page, please do.

Below are all of the forum threads, including all the responses to the original posts.

Until recently I have avoided using expensive and often unfriendly commercial design simulation software and instead used various free programs and mathcad routines / spreadsheets etc for such tasks as: Amplifier design and analysis, filters, matching, PLLs etc etc. This approach has served me quite well but there are occasions when I need a bit more than my cheap approach allows. Getting to the point of this question.....

Which design/analysis software is worth considering, and why? The two names that I seem to hear quite a bit are AWR and Eagleware. ????????

Thanks.

It depends on what do u expect from the software.Genesys serves good synthesis tools i.e Matching network;Active/Passive/Microwave Filters;Oscillator , Mixer etc.AWR serves good EM simulator in addition to filter synthesis tools.I think Agilent ADS is best for both analysis and synthesis.If u want analysis software u can choose AWR but if u want synthesis software u can choose Genesys.
