Solar Cell Verilog Model for Cadence
A model of the solar cell is built in Verilog-ams. This is needed in order to perform the simulation of the MPPT in a Solar Energy Harvester.
Comparator with Hysteresis in Cadence
There are many types of comparators, in this example a comparator with hysteresis is analyzed and simulated.
How to change the wire colour in Cadence
Change the color of some wires in Cadence Virtuoso can be useful in schematics with a lot of wires.
Active Filters: 2nd order Tschebychev Bandpass
A second order active bandpass filter by cascading two staggered tuned first order bandpass filters is shown, built and tested.
