- Seamlessly integrated in Virtuoso environment for ease of use
The Cadence® EMX® Planar 3D Solver is an electromagnetic simulator for high-frequency, RF, and mixed-signal integrated circuits. It allows designers to accurately and efficiently simulate large RF circuit blocks, characterize the behavior or passive components, and analyze the parasitics due to interconnect. The EMX Planar 3D Solver’s unique emphasis is on complete automation coupled with uncompromised speed and accuracy.
The EMX Planar 3D Solver is integrated with the Cadence Virtuoso® custom IC design platform and Cadence Spectre® models.
