How to install Taiyo Yuden Component Library
Step1. Unzip “AS_TY**.zip”
Step2. Copy the unzipped files into the directory where Ansoft Designer is
installed (<ANSYS Designer>). (for both Nexxim and ANSYS Designer)
* Delete the folder “<ANSYS Designer>¥userlib¥Taiyo Yuden” if it already exists, before
installing current version of the Library.
* In case that you use ANSYS 15.0 or 16.0, copy Taiyo Yuden folder to
<ANSYS Designer>¥Designer¥userlib (ANSYS 15.0)
<ANSYS Designer>¥ElectronicsDesktop¥userlib (ANSYS 16.0)

1. Select “Components” tab of Project Manager.
2. Open Taiyo_Yuden folder in User Libraries and select a
component group.
How to use Library on Nexxim - Selecting a component
You can choose S-parameter or
Equivalent model as a simulation model
for each element.
Double-click
on the
symbol
Click on
“Choose
Model” button
Use “Choose Model” button to select a
component of Taiyo Yuden Library.
You can select an appropriate one from
the data provided for a design as well as
the model name.
How to use Library on Nexxim - Placing SMT Global Control (only on Nexxim)
1. For an analysis on Nexxim, be sure to put on the schematic a [SMT Global
Control] in Taiyo_Yuden.
2. For a transient analysis, tick [Transient_Analysis] in the property of [SMT
Global Control]. Then set [Transient_Frequency] value to the fundamental
frequency of the signal to be analyzed.
