How could I add a vendor Library?
For example, I need to use a Sirenza amplifier, and I haven't into the libraries, what can I do to find the model for Genesys?

We don't currently have any Sirenza amplifier models that ship with GENESYS. To see the models that do ship with GENESYS take a look at the Model directory in GENESYS (c:\\program files\\genesys2006.10\\model, or the equivalent).
We support S-Paramers for analysis and we support Spice model import as two ways of getting vendor information into GENESYS analysis. Sirenza posts S-Parameters so you could use those as a starting point.
The simplest way to use S-Parameters is to use a TWO device and specify the S-Parameter file name as an argument. This will import the S-Data and use it within the device. Or, you can import them using File / Import and then the S-Parameters can be used on graphs or for data comparison or as a Model definition.
To convert this into something in a library I would probably import the S-Parameters, then right-click the imported dataset and click Copy To to copy them to a library for use in other workspaces.
If you have an equivalent circuit for the part, then creating a schematic-based model is really easy. This is discussed in the User's Guide.
You can create a part that always loads the vendor S-Parameter file - as we do with the S-Data based vendor libraries that come with GENESYS.
