Featured Capabilities

  • Generates ready-to-solve projects for:
    • HFSS
    • SIwave
    • Q3D Extractor
    • PlanarEM
    • TPA
    • Icepak
    • ANSYS Mechanical

  • Generates 3D solid models of selected traces, planes and vias
  • Edit stack-up properties, such as individual layer thickness, dielectric constant, and conductivity
  • Select nets for translation by net name(s), or point and click on specific traces or region of the board
  • Automatic de-featuring of selected nets to minimize model complexity and solution time
  • Clip design to reduce translation size for the field solvers
