Computer Simulation Technology (CST of America, Inc.), makers of electromagnetic field simulation software, has become one of the fastest growing simulation software companies in North America. Its products enable you to characterize, design and optimize electromagnetic devices all before going into the lab or measurement chamber. This can help save substantial costs especially for new or cutting edge products, and also reduce design risk and improve overall performance and profitability.

Technologies on Display:

CST MICROWAVE STUDIO®
Product Category: System Modeling and Simulation Tools

CST's flagship product, CST MICROWAVE STUDIO® (CST MWS), is the market leading time domain tool for 3D EM simulation. Application areas include wireless design, signal integrity, and EMC/EMI. Exceptionally user friendly, CST MWS gives you insight into the EM behaviour of your designs.

CST promotes "Complete Technology". Beside the flagship module, the broadly applicable Time Domain solver and the Frequency Domain solver which simulates on hexahedral and on tetrahedral grids, CST MWS offers further modules for specific applications.

Filters for the import of CAD files and extraction of SPICE parameters enhance design possibilities and save time. Embedded in an advanced design environment, CST MWS can be coupled with all CST STUDIO SUITE^TM solver technology including circuit and thermal simulation.

CST PCB STUDIO^TM
Product Category: PCB Design Tools and Technologies

CST PCB STUDIO^TM (CST PCBS) is a specialist tool for the investigation of Signal and Power Integrity and the simulation of EMC and EMI effects on PCBs. Regardless of the application type - high speed digital, analog/mixed signal, or power supply - CST PCBS will help you to get it right first time.

CST PCBS is fully integrated in the CST design environment so users can benefit from the manpower and experience invested in its world renowned user interface. A wide variety of imports allow the tight integration of CST PCBS with various design flows. For EMI analysis, results from CST PCBS can be used as the source for CST MICROWAVE STUDIO® simulations.

CST CABLE STUDIO^TM
Product Category: System Modeling and Simulation Tools

CST CABLE STUDIO^TM (CST CS) is focused on the analysis of SI, EMC and EMI effects on single wires, twisted pairs, or on complex cable harnesses. By reliably optimizing the shielding, weight, and space consumption of complex cable harnesses while in the virtual prototype stage, CST CS helps you achieve cost effective design.

CST CS performs simulations in time and frequency domain, including skin effect and dielectric losses. Simulations can also comprise SPICE and IBIS models. Typical analysis includes voltage distributions on probes, current flow through components, scattering parameters, and impedances.

A wide variety of imports allow its tight integration in various design flows. CST CS can easily exchange data with full 3D solvers of CST MWS for EMC/EMI simulations.
