Welcome

Sonnet Suites produces precise RF models (S-, Y-, Z-parameters or extracted SPICE models) for planar circuits and antennas. The software requires a physical description of your circuit (arbitrary layout and material properties for metal and dielectrics), and employs a rigorous Method-of-Moments EM analysis based on Maxwell's equations that includes all parasitic, cross-coupling, enclosure and package resonance effects.

Applications

Sonnet's suites of high-frequency electromagnetic (EM) Software are aimed at designs involving predominantly planar (3D planar) circuits and antennas. Predominantly planar circuits include:

• Arbitrary microstrip & stripline circuits
• Planar spiral inductors
• RFIC & MMIC circuits
• Planar filters
• High Speed Digital Interconnects
• High density interconnects
• Multi-layer circuits like LTCC and PCB circuits
• Microwave circuit discontinuities
• Planar (patch) antennas
• Circuits with vias, vertical metal sheets (z-directed strips), and any number of layers of metal traces embedded in stratified dielectric material
