Why Use Ansys SIwave?
Successful design of next-generation electronic products requires power integrity, signal integrity and thermal integrity co-analysis. SIwave uniquely handles the complexity of interconnect design from die-to-die across ICs, packages, connectors and boards. By leveraging advanced electromagnetic, thermal and mechanical simulators dynamically linked to powerful circuit and system simulation, you can understand the performance of high-speed electronic products long before building a prototype in hardware. This approach enables electronics companies to achieve a competitive advantage with faster time to market, reduced costs and improved system performance.
