Keysight Technologies to Demonstrate Latest EDA Software at CSICS
October 8, 2015 | Keysight Technologies, Inc.Estimated reading time: 1 minute
Highlights:
- Product improvements solve critical EDA design challenges
- Usability and design flow integration increase EDA design productivity
Keysight Technologies, Inc. today announced it will demonstrate its latest RF circuit, system and 3-D electromagnetic design and electro-thermal simulation software solutions at the Compound Semiconductor IC Symposium (CSICS 2015), Sheraton New Orleans, Booth 601, New Orleans, Oct. 11-14. Keysight EEsof EDA is a silver-level sponsor of the event.
Specific software demonstrations from Keysight EDA’s technical experts and application engineers will include:
- Advanced Design System, including the Electro-Thermal Simulator, Doherty and envelope tracking applications, and GaAs, GaN, Silicon RFIC, and multi-technology RF module design capabilities.
- EMPro with 3-D electromagnetic components and unparalleled integration with ADS. EMPro provides time- and frequency-domain simulation technologies allowing it to handle a broad range of RF, microwave and high-speed digital applications.
- Modeling and characterization of CMOS and III-V devices for cutting-edge logic, AMS and RF technologies using an end-to-end platform that provides an open, user-programmable environment with built-in, turn-key solutions for wafer-level automated measurement and modeling of semiconductor devices.
On Oct. 14, Keysight’s principal engineer, Rick Poore, will participate on a panel titled, Multi-Physics Simulation: Heavenly Accuracy or Convergence Hell?
The symposium brings together industry experts from around the world to discuss and present the latest results in GaAs IC technology and monolithic microwave integrated circuit design as well as GaN, InP, SiGe, nanoscale CMOS, and other emerging technologies. CSICS offers the ideal forum for discussing state-of-the-art IC performance, innovative design techniques and advanced device technologies. No other event presents GaN HPAs, InP THz PAs, 100 Gb/s CMOS/SiGe transceivers, GaN HEMT power devices, and advances in compact modeling alongside one another.

Fresh PCB Concepts: PCB Design Essentials for Electric Vehicle Charging
11/27/2024 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsElectric vehicles (EVs), powered by electricity rather than fossil fuels, are transforming transportation and reducing environmental impacts. But what good is an EV if it can't be easily charged? In this month's column, Ramon Roche dives into the role of printed circuit boards (PCBs) in electric vehicle charging (EVC)—and the design considerations.
From Construction Work to PCB Design in Under a Year
11/27/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineAt the Anaheim Electronics & Manufacturing Show in October, I had the opportunity to talk with some new PCB designers, including Jon Smith of Frontgrade Aethercomm. During the Anaheim show, John Watson, a PCB design instructor at Palomar College, led a panel of his past and present students, including Jon, who shared his story of switching from a construction career to PCB design in a matter of months, courtesy of Watson’s Palomar College design curriculum.
PCB Layout Rules of Thumb for Consideration
11/25/2024 | Patrick Davis, Cadence Design SystemsJust because a “rule of thumb” is usually based on experience instead of precise facts doesn’t negate its value. For instance, when I told my kids that a good rule of thumb was not to back-talk to their mother, they discovered very quickly how accurate my advice was once they crossed that line. There are a lot of rules of thumb that we rely on daily, including those that apply to PCB design.
