If you are a designer or engineer working in the electronics field, you know how essential it is to ensure the signal and power integrity and management of electromagnetic interference (EMI) in your PCB and IC package designs.

The good news is that the HIGH TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS now has a state-of-the-art solution to meet these needs: Ansys SIwave.

Ansys SIwave is specialised PCB and IC package simulation software designed to offer engineers and designers a complete suite of tools for analysing and optimising their designs.

The analysis in question covers several key areas such as:

• Impedance/Crosstalk/EMI Scanner
• DC Analysis
• Power Integrity
• Signal Integrity
• Electromagnetic Compatibility/Interference
• DDR4 Channel Compliance
• Chip-Package-System Analysis (CPS)

By simply importing the PCB layout (created on an ECAD), it will be possible to model, simulate and validate what has been created, both for the high-speed and power supply parts of the circuit.
Post-layout analysis satisfies the designer’s need to know and improve his work prior to PCB production, through post-simulation optimisation of all layout aspects that are critical (and not) for the functioning of the entire product.

Why did we choose Ansys SIwave for our future designs?

Ansys SIwave simulation software creates a wide range of benefits for us and our customers, as its correct use allows us to:

1. Reduce prototyping times: as it makes it possible to analyse and optimise the layout before it is made, without having to wait for the prototypes to evaluate the changes that need to be implemented and then
   start a second production of the prototypes themselves.
   
   
2. Reduce the time required to create a measurement system for prototypes: all measurements of interest can be made directly with the design file of your ECAD, without the use of special measurement tools.
   
   
3. Reduce development costs: with the possibility of simulating prototype layouts, without the need to make them, you reduce product development costs, as you do not need to make and assemble several prototype versions of PCBs.
   
   
4. Increasing the quality of the final product: with the simple testing of prototypes, the designer can never be sure that the solution he is testing is the best possible for the circuit in question; with the use of SIwave simulators, on the other hand, it is possible to achieve the highest quality of the product being manufactured, through the analysis and evaluation of all possible solutions.
