Public Domain Open Source Software:
·
FastMaxwell,
an open-source, full-wave, 3D, electromagnetic solver for efficient extraction
of interconnect structures above a substrate. The code is accelerated via the
efficient discrete complex image method, efficient full-wave integration
routines and an iterative precorrected fast Fourier transform matrix vector
product. The code has been tested on a variety of large scale (up to 300,000
unknowns) structures.
·
Squid (stable quasiconvex
identification), an
open-source matlab tool for the generation of reduced order linear system
models from available transfer function data points. The tool is based on a quasi-convex
relaxation of a system identification problem subject to stability and
passivity constraints.
·
Stins (stable identification
of nonlinear systems) is a public domain open
source compact modeling code for nonlinear analog circuit blocks such as low
noise amplifiers, mixers, or power amplifiers, based on system identification
with stability guarantees. (username and password access available upon request
