Compatible with: HFSS™, Q3D Extractor®, Maxwell® 3D

Optimetrics™ is a versatile, optional software program that adds parametric, optimization, sensitivity, and statistical analysis capabilities to HFSS, Q3D Extractor and Maxwell 3D. Optimetrics automates the design-optimization process for high-performance electronic devices by quickly identifying optimal values for design parameters that satisfy user-specified constraints.

Coupled to Ansoft electromagnetic-field simulation software, Optimetrics delivers optimized designs that favorably impact the bottom line.
