Description
Flux is a browser-based electronic design automation (EDA) platform for designing printed circuit boards. It brings schematic capture, PCB layout, simulation, routing, and design rule checks into a shared online workspace.
Its AI hardware design assistant helps turn plain-language circuit requirements into schematics, research components, place parts, route traces, and review designs. Engineers can edit the results, define design constraints, and review the board before manufacturing.
Multiple users can work on the same design in real time, leave comments, and manage project permissions. Reusable community circuits and component libraries help teams start new designs, while live component pricing and availability support part selection.
Flux exports Gerber, bill of materials (BOM), and pick-and-place files. It accepts Altium ASCII and Cadence EDIF schematics and KiCad component libraries. These imports do not include PCB layouts.
Flux is used by electronics engineers, hardware startups, and product teams. A trial includes limited AI usage; after the trial, a paid plan is required to edit or export private projects and use AI. Public-project and community access remain available.
Description
Synopsys Saber offers a high-precision virtual prototyping suite tailored for multi-domain power electronics design, which comprises SaberEXP, SaberRD, and SaberES Designer. This innovative platform enables engineers to conduct complex simulations that account for various component tolerances, allowing for the generation of both best and worst-case scenarios while facilitating “what-if” analyses. The unparalleled accuracy of Saber helps minimize development costs by decreasing the number of prototypes necessary for effective validation. SaberEXP serves as a rapid converging simulator for power electronics, featuring a piecewise linear (PWL) approach and seamless integration with SaberRD. SaberRD enhances this experience by providing a comprehensive design and simulation environment specifically for mechatronic systems, offering top-tier analysis capabilities for validating power electronics. Meanwhile, SaberES Designer acts as a sophisticated tool for optimizing wiring harness layouts, materials, and costs, ensuring compatibility with leading industry CAD systems. By employing systematic robust design methodologies, engineers can achieve stringent performance and reliability targets even within tight timelines, ultimately streamlining the overall design process. This comprehensive solution not only improves efficiency but also empowers teams to innovate more effectively in the rapidly evolving landscape of power electronics.
