RF breakdown analysis software
Spark3D is a unique simulation tool for determining the RF breakdown power level in a wide variety of passive devices, including cavities, waveguides, microstrip and antennas.
Simulia CST Studio Suite Spark3D is the most powerful software tool for RF breakdown analysis available on the market today. It is based on accurate numeric algorithms for predicting both gas discharge (also known as Corona discharge) and Multipactor breakdown onsets, which are two of the main high power effects that can severely damage passive RF devices. Spark3D supports the designing/manufacturing industries to decrease both the time to market and the development costs of the next generation of communication systems.
Key features
- Versatile and powerful—Spark3D is able to import the electromagnetic fields computed with some of the most widespread electromagnetic simulation software tools like Simulia CST Studio Suite, Simulia CST Studio Suite Fest3D and ANSYS HFSS™;
- Easy to use—Spark3D is designed to minimize the required user intervention; in many cases, the pre-defined options and parameters are enough to obtain accurate results;
- Fully-developed GUI—An intuitive Graphical User Interface allows the user to easily set up a simulation and visualize the results, even during the run-time;
- Accurate—Hundreds of high power tests have been done to crosscheck Spark3D simulations, demonstrating high accuracy within the expected margins.
