About this manual

The STWPLLSim tool is a Java-based simulator designed to help users design optimal loop filters for STW81101x synthesizers. It provides accurate estimations of overall phase noise and settling time performances, allowing for interactive comparison between measurements and simulations. The software requires the MATLAB Component Runtime (MCR) Libraries to perform time domain simulations and runs on Windows 2000/XP.
