AWR Partners with Flomerics to Link Circuit Simulation with 3D Electromagnetic Analysis
(El Segundo, Calif. and London, UK, October 2005) Applied Wave Research Inc. (AWR®), a leading provider of high-frequency electronic design automation (EDA) tools, and Flomerics, a provider of 3D electromagnetic analysis software, today announced a partnership that will enable Microwave/RF engineers analyzing circuit layouts using AWR's Microwave Office® software to study the electromagnetic performance of key components in 3D using the MicroStripes software from Flomerics.
The data translation will take advantage of the AWR EM Socket(TM) interface to enable Microwave Office® users to transfer data automatically to the MicroStripes 3D solver allowing comprehensive analysis of antennas, filters, couplers, interconnects, planar structures and packaging issues.
"This partnership will create interoperability between Microwave Office, our leading RF Circuit/System simulator, and MicroStripes - a proven 3D electromagnetic analysis tool." said Ted Miracco, Founder and Executive VP of Worldwide Sales for AWR. "The open architecture of Microwave Office makes this relatively straightforward and yields great benefits in terms of re-using data and speeding up the overall RF design flow. Our customers will be excited by the benefits this relationship will produce."
