ELECTROMAGNETIC 3D SOLVER

• TOOL OF CHOICE FOR

• Teaching
• recommended for Microwave, RF and mmWave (theory
  and circuit design), Electromagnetic Theory,
  Electromagnetic compatibility, MEMS design
  courses, MMIC and IC design course
• easy to learn (complete set of animated
  tutorials), create animations (AVI, GIF)
  demonstrating basic principles (standing waves
  and matching, interference, working principles of
  a component), competitive prices for equipping
  complete classrooms
• keep in touch with one of the most used tools in
  the Microwave and RF industry
• seamlessly interfaced with the most popular
  microwave circuit design suite AWR Microwave
  Office

ELECTROMAGNETIC 3D SOLVER

• TOOL OF CHOICE FOR

• Advanced research
• Entirely developed by a research team, includes
  many unique features (controlled current sources,
  multimode calibration, ability to enter any
  frequency dependent parametric expression to
  describe new materials, interaction with acoustic
  waves investigate the impact of material
  properties (electrical, mechanical), new
  electromagnetic phenomena and devices, develop
  your own calibration technique for measurements
• A Pascal Object-Oriented scripting let you handle
  directly internal parts of EM3DS! Create your own
  menu in EM3DS, link to events/parameters/results
• It is 3D simulate at the same time dielectric
  resonators, planar circuits, active linear
  devices

ELECTROMAGNETIC 3D SOLVER

• TOOL OF CHOICE FOR

• Design of RF, Microwave, mmWave and MEMS
  circuits
• Flexible Parametric definition of objects and
  materials you can tune, modify, optimize
  parameters extract a parametric macro-model
  (real-time estimation of response as a parameter
  is changed) create macro-commands by a pascal
  script no grid to fit into...
• Very Fast Asymptotic extraction technique (fast
  for many frequency calculation), Variational
  (coarse mesh gives good results as well),
  SmartFIT selects automatically and adaptively
  frequencies to catch and plot resonances uses a
  Method of Moments only conductors are meshed
  (insensitive dramatic cross-sectional
  aspect-ratio), and complex substrates, including
  tents of layers, are quick and easy to simulate
• Very Powerful Allows a broad class of devices
  microstrip, stripline, coplanar waveguide,
  coupled strip based components, filters,
  couplers, planar antennas and array of antennas,
  dielectric resonators, acoustic resonators,
  active linear devices (MESFETS, HEMTS),
  transitions, matching circuits
• Complete suite includes many kind of charts
  (Smiths, polar antenna, S/Z/Y/losses/VSWR/Phase
  difference/Q measurement, contour plot, surface
  plot of currents/field, far field plot, 3D views
  etc) a linear circuit simulator to attach
  sub-circuits, connect lumped elements, manually
  calibrate etc a broadband spice model extractor
  extract equivalent circuits automatically
  import/export results in touchstone format
  filters to import/export GDSII and DXF
  structures...

Electromagnetic modeling

• Purpose evaluate the electromagnetic field
  distribution across planar and quasi-planar
  structures when a sinusoidal electrical signal is
  applied somewhere -the point of excitation is a
  port
• What planar means a structure which is entered
  layer-by-layer, as common in semi-conductor
  technology e.g. microchips, printed circuit
  boards, microelectromechanical devices
