DESIGN TRANSLATION
IFF Schematic Translation for Cadence Using the Intermediate File Format (IFF), a platform and application independent ASCII file format, to exchange schematic data between ADS and Cadence Design Framework II.	IFF Translation for Mentor Graphics Using the Intermediate File Format (IFF), a platform and application independent ASCII file format, to exchange schematic and layout data between ADS and Mentor Graphics.	Translating Mentor Graphics Libraries to ADS Using the Intermediate File Format (IFF), a platform and application independent ASCII file format, to exchange Library Management System libraries between ADS and Mentor Graphics.
Importing and Exporting Designs Importing and exporting designs using the configurable import/export translators in ADS.
DATA I/O
Data File Tool Reading from or writing to a dataset using Touchstone, MDIF, Citifile, or ICCAP formats.	Netlist Exporter Using the ADS schematic editor as a single point of entry to drive entire design flows.	Netlist Exporter Setup Setting up and modifying the Front End Flow tool configuration. Includes information on setting up the Front End Flow interface, defining custom netlist tools, defining custom components, and a detailed HSpice example.
Netlist Translator for SPICE and Spectre Translating Berkeley Spice, PSpice, HSpice, and Spectre netlists into ADS netlists or schematics.	RFIC Dynamic Link Using the interactive link between ADS and Cadence for RFIC design. Includes information on using ADS to simulate circuits created within Cadence.	analogLib Components Library of Analog/RF devices and models that includes Actives, Passives, Parasitics, Analysis, and Sources (Dependent, Independent, and Ports).
MEASUREMENT HARDWARE
Connection Manager Using the Connection Manager to interface with instruments. Includes information on how to access and control instruments from ADS.	Instrument Server Reading and writing data from various sources such as a network analyzer or Touchstone file (Windows only). Includes information on the supported file formats.	WiMax Connected Solutions Design examples working with Agilent instruments have been created in ADS for testing Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMax) OFDM systems.
Instruments Signal Processing instrument components for exchanging data and commands with Agilent instruments, Agilent VEE, Agilent VSA 89600 series software, and Read/Write files compatible with other Agilent tools such as Signal Studio and Baseband Studio.
