3D EM tool reduces design time

Suited for analyzing the EM effects of RF and microwave components such as high-speed IC packages, antennas, on-chip embedded passives, and PCB interconnects, the Electromagnetic Professional (EMPro) design platform features the most modern design, simulation, and analysis environment. Key features include efficient, time-saving design entry through the 3D drawing environment, importing of 3D CAD data files or integration with ADS, intelligent “one-time” materials assignment, allowing designers to “set it and forget it” for subsequent data file imports, and interactive 3D editing, minimizing back-and-forth mouse movements to menu options and dialog boxes.

The tool also provides parameterization of 3D objects, real-time plot updating during simulation, Linux and Windows support, and worldwide local-language technical and applications support from Agilent. (From $50,000 — available November.)
