Description

Microwave Office facilitates the design of various RF passive components, including filters, couplers, and attenuators, along with active devices functioning under small-signal (AC) conditions, such as low noise and buffer amplifiers. Its linear configuration allows for the simulation of S-parameters (Y/Z/H/ABCD), small-signal gain, linear stability, noise figure, return loss, and voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), complemented by features like real-time tuning, optimization, and yield analysis. Each E-series Microwave Office portfolio encompasses synchronous schematic and layout editors, 2D and 3D viewers, and extensive libraries featuring high-frequency distributed transmission models, as well as surface-mount vendor component RF models complete with footprints. Additionally, it offers measurement-based simulations and RF plotting capabilities. Microwave Office PCB further enhances the design process by enabling both linear and nonlinear RF circuit design through the advanced APLAC HB simulator, which provides powerful multi-rate HB, transient-assisted HB, and time-variant simulation engines for comprehensive RF/microwave circuit analysis. This extensive toolset empowers engineers to push the boundaries of RF design and streamline their development workflows effectively.

Description

Ultiboard is a powerful software solution for designing and laying out printed circuit boards (PCBs), which works hand-in-hand with Multisim to streamline the development of PCB prototypes. The software provides a user-friendly environment for efficient PCB design layout and routing, allowing for customization to suit individual needs. Its versatile tools enable precise manual placement of components and copper, which is essential for defining critical elements of the board. Additionally, the automated features facilitate a faster design process. Users will find that the advanced spreadsheet view, along with various toolboxes and design wizards, simplifies the management and definition of board layouts. The integration with Multisim ensures easy schematic transfers to PCBs, and the capability for forward and backward annotation supports effective design iteration management. Furthermore, Ultiboard allows for the straightforward export of industry-standard file formats like Gerber and DXF, ensuring a seamless transition from schematic creation to layout finalization. This comprehensive approach not only emphasizes data and automation but also supports research and validation, underlining our commitment to helping engineers create innovative solutions for the future. Ultimately, Ultiboard empowers users to bring their electronic designs to life with confidence and efficiency.
