Non-Simulatable Components


There are several SPECTRASYS components that have no counterpart in ADS. These components are transferred into ADS as non-simulatable components.

Non-simulatable components appear on the ADS schematic with orange circle-slashes through them.

To perform a simulation in ADS, you need to replace each instance of a non-simulatable component with an instance of a regular ADS component or with an instance of a subcircuit that you create to model the component. See Component Mappings for more information.

The following GENESYS models are mapped to ADS non-simulatable components.

†  If a different symbol is used, the GENESYS model is still mapped into ADS as a non-simulatable component. In this case, an intermediate sub-circuit will be used, so you need to push inside the sub-circuit to see the non-simulatable component.
