For those looking to use S-parameters from vendors on their devices, some 
programs like Spectrum software's Micro-Cap can process Y-parameters. There 
is a straight-forward conversion of S to Y parameters described on the 
Spectrum Software web site (spectrum-soft.com) in their newsletter for 
"Winter 2001."  Spectrum has simplified this process by providing a DOS-based 
program to do the conversion to Y-parameters. Once converted, the 
Y-parameters can then be expressed in Laplace Table current sources for 
modeling and simulation. An example of this process (with the LT circuit 
configuration) is also given to verify correlation and demonstrate the 
process.

Micro-Cap is based on Berkeley SPICE 3.5h (or later); hence, many other 
programs may be able to use this approach to handle S-parameter files.
