Description

Advanced Design System (ADS) 2009 is a high-frequency/high-speed platform for co-design of integrated circuits (IC), packages, modules and boards. It helps circuit, package, board and system designers work with a single EDA platform to share simulation models and minimize design rework, costs and delays in communications product design.

ADS 2009 cuts hardware integration turns by revealing unexpected component interactions upfront that cause integration failures downstream. It offers key enabling technologies for Co-Design, including X-parameters for non-linear modeling of off-the-shelf components through direct measurement; and 3D EM components integrated within the circuit and system design flow. ADS 2009 also interoperates with the Cadence and Mentor back-end design platforms to complete the physical implementation.
