02/01/12: Virginia Diodes and Modelithics partner to provide nonlinear models.

Virginia Diodes and Modelithics have partnered to provide nonlinear models of VDI's W Band Single Anode and W Band ZBD Schottky diodes. Extensive model information data sheets demonstrate linear and non-linear validations against measured data taken from DC through 125 GHz. The model data sheets and model access requests can be accessed through the Modelithics website

"We have enjoyed working with Modelithics to advance what we believe to be the industry’s broadest band diode models. VDI’s customers are already benefiting from access to these new models that were developed in response to numerous customer requests” stated Gerhard Schoenthal, Director of Operations and Microelectronics at VDI
