What is IE3D? & What are it’s Applications? IE3D = Integral Equation in 3D Numerical method used is Method of Moments (MoM) IE3D is not only a simulation tool but also a design tool with real-time EM
tuning and optimization.
Its been extensively used for Passive components design
– Spiral Inductors and Transformers, MIM Capacitors, Filters, Couplers/Hybrids, Dividers/Combiners, LTCC, Active circuits
– Patch, Slot and Wire Antennas, RFID Tag antennas and other planar antennas. Analysis of planar Antenna Arrays
– RFIC (Si, SiGe, GaAs) and Packaging
– PCB, Signal and Power Integrity
Applications of EM Simulators
RFIC
Basic 3D EM Analysis Methods
Application Programs in IE3DMGRID Layout editor, current distribution and near field post processor. Major GUI of the package.
IE3D / IE3DOS EM simulation and optimization engine and progress display.
MODUA Pre-processor for mixed EM/ckt sim & optim; Post-processor for s-parameter display and handling, ckt sim & optim
PatternView Display, comparison and handling of radiation patterns.
AGIF Auto Geometry to IE3D Flow for linking IE3D to Cadence Virtuoso, Allegro and APD and GDS II to IE3D Flow.
IE3Dlibrary 2nd layout editor w/ parameterized library objects for easy build, sim & optim.
MDSPICE Optional S-parameter based time-transient SPICE simulator for waveform analysis; Wide-band RLC extractor from s-parameters.
FilterSyn Optional filter synthesis module for IE3Dlibrary. Synthesize a pre-defined filter based upon specs using analytical formulas. The result is geometry ready for IE3D.
SpiralSyn Optional spiral inductor and transformer synthesis module for IE3Dlibrary. Synthesize a pre-defined spiral based upon specs using the IE3D engine. MMIC oriented.
ADIX Optional IE3DGDS IIDXFACISGERBER converter. Integrated into MGRID 10.2
LineGauge Optional simple transmission line calculator (Free basic edition).
ZDS/ZDM Network-based IE3D sim & optim service for distributing multi-frequency sim & optim to the whole network.

Typical IE3D Simulation
Create structure
Import GDS, DXF
IE3D Library
Define ports
Set up sim (mesh density, freq
sampling pts, etc.)
Display plots or data (S, Z, Y, VSWR,
Current, Radiation Pattern)
Check mesh
Export GDS, DXF Extract RLC
Mix s-param & lumped
elements in ckt sim (Modua or
other)
Spice sim
