Hi,

do you know if it is possible to use s-parameters defined components?
The harmonic balance solver is really nice and compares well with even ADS, but to do some RF design the use of touchstone defined components is practically mandatory.
Is there a way to use them?

We do not yet support touchstone files, and there is no direct way to use s-parameter defined components. However, both of those are being targeted for development in 2019. We can't guarantee availability in a specific release, but those capabilities are definitely on our radar.

This is a great addition for RF simulations. I will wait for it. Thanks

Is there any news for this? I have seen that the 6.11 has the S-parameter simulation and ability to save touchstones.

Xyce 6.11 has the capability of performing simulations that extract S-parameters and save them to touchstone format.  Ability to read in touchstone files and use them in simulation is under development, but will not be in the 6.11 release.
