With AnsoftLinks™ for Cadence Allegro®, an entire PCB package or SiP design, or portions of it, can automatically be translated and converted into Ansoft models. This frees the design engineer from the tedious task of manually redrawing a layout.

Special Features:

• Ability to select nets to be analyzed by specifying the net name(s), selecting specific traces by pointing and clicking, or selecting a region of the board
• Allows the editing of any stack-up information, such as individual layer thickness, dielectric constant, and conductivity
• Automatically generates 3D solid model of selected traces, supply planes, and vias
• Automatically unites touching metal on different layers into the same conductor
• Automatically adds ports or sources to identified pins
• Allows automatic defeaturing of selected nets to minimize complexity and solution time
• Easy-to-use, menu-driven interface
