Ansoft provides advanced simulation software for high-performance IC, SIP, SOC, gigabit backplane, and power delivery system design. Discover how our innovative dynamic co-simulation technology combines transistor-level models of drivers/receivers with S-parameter/W-element models for IC/PCB interconnects, vias/transitions, connectors and packages to design, verify and optimize next generation electronics.

Nanometer CMOS, serial memory, and serial storage design require detailed circuit simulation that includes electromagnetic effects across chip, package, and board. Ansoft design software, including HFSS^TM, SIwave^TM, Q3D Extractor®, Nexxim® and DesignerSI^TM, allows engineers to extract signal path models, simulate, and validate the signal and power integrity of complex high-performance electronics with electromagnetics. Leveraging advanced electromagnetic-field simulators with powerful circuit and system simulation empowers design teams with the knowledge of how their high-speed electronic products will perform long before building hardware prototypes. Ansoft products enable engineers to:

• Extract accurate RLGC and S-parameter data for high-speed PCB and on-chip interconnects, IC packages, and connectors
• Simulate time and frequency signal behavior based on detailed channel, driver and receiver models
• Optimize performance metrics, including voltage and current waveforms, BER, eye diagrams, SSO, board/package resonances, and radiated fields.
• Leverage multiple processors and distributed computing to apply a network of computers to perform parametric simulation, sensitivity, and optimization.
