I read in the documentation of IC-CAP 2013 that it's possible to import data measured from a non-IC-CAP environment into IC-CAP, however, I can't really say it's intuitive how this is done (should be mentioned that I'm new to IC-CAP). I have DC-IV, multi-bias S-parameter, and CW RF (NVNA data) measurements of a GaN HEMT transistor I'd like to make a model of; as for now I've made my own model using the measured data in ADS. I'm not fully satisfied with the accuracy, and would like to see if I can do any better using one of the extraction packages in IC-CAP.
Since I already have the measurement data, I think the most effective use of time is to re-use this data, which I per today also use in ADS via the DAC-tool. But how can I incorporate this data into IC-CAP? As far as I understand, ADS can't export data to the *.mdm format; is it possible to somehow read data from the data set files that ADS generates? Or any other script one can use for this purpose?

This question would be best directed to Email: [eesof_support@agilent.com], so we can discuss your files and situation fully.
Without knowing the full file/data details/background, I would suggest you could consider the following approach:
1. use the ADS Data File Tool (off schematic), to export the your data to *.s2p or citifile or mdif format
2. in ICCAP, refer to examples found under:
Examples > demo_features > 5_PEL_PROGRAMING > 1_DATA_IMPORT_EXPORT > 2_READ_WRITE_DATAFILES
and under there, see the various folders and example files for importing data to ICCAP from s2p, mdif, etc. formats.
Hope that helps. Please feel free to contact us at Email: [eesof_support@agilent.com] and we can discuss in further detail.
