About
PathWave ADS offers integrated design guidance via templates to help you get started faster. Extensive component libraries make it easy to find the part you want. Automatic sync with layout allows you to visualize the physical layout while making schematic designs. Data helps teams visualize whether their designs meet specifications. The data display and analytics capabilities in PathWave ADS produce graphs, charts, and diagrams to give you design confidence. Quickly accelerate your design with wizards, design guides, and templates. The complete design flow includes schematic, layout, circuit, electro-thermal, and electromagnetic simulations. Signal and power integrity are becoming more important as frequency and speed increase in printed circuit boards (PCBs). Losses associated with transmission line effects can cause failures in electronic devices. Modeling traces, vias, and interconnects are necessary to simulate the board accurately.

About
Sensbench is a browser-based circuit and microcontroller simulator for learning, prototyping, and testing Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi Pico, and other supported boards. Users place virtual boards and components on a breadboard, connect circuits, edit sketches, compile firmware, and run it in an emulated microcontroller while viewing serial output and component behavior. It also supports SPICE analog simulation and mixed digital-analog circuits. Guided examples and virtual sensors, displays, LEDs, relays, and other parts are included. An optional AI builder turns a written project request into a parts list, wiring plan, and firmware, while an MCP server lets compatible AI clients operate the workbench. The core simulator is free to use in a web browser; optional AI credits and subscription plans add AI usage and project features. Sensbench also sells physical project kits with pre-flashed boards and guides, including kits designed to connect to Home Assistant over local Wi-Fi.
