Verifying Accuracy for Inductive Loops with Lumped Elements

22-Apr-2013

This application note aims at explaining analysis of simple wire loops (inductive in their nature) in WIPL-D software package. Special attention is devoted to the case when lumped elements are also included in the circuits.

Simple wire square loop is simulated at 15.9155 MHz. Two loops are simulated with total circumference equal to 2 cm and 16 cm. The accuracy of EM simulation can be verified by checking the obtained values by using a number of free calculators available on the Internet. This calculator gives almost the same values as WIPL-D. These results illustrate accuracy of WIPL-D in determining low-frequency inductance. The simulation accuracy is verified with the same loops to which a lumped element is attached.
