HQDFM

Perforce IPLM (formerly Methodics) Platform For Full Traceability. Collaborate on worldwide semiconductor design with a new, modern platform. Semiconductor and chip design teams know that the development process can be long and costly. There is little room for error, and if an error happens, you have to go back to the beginning. But when you can share and reuse IP — and design it once and reuse multiple variants — you can accelerate time-to-market and drive greater revenue for your business. Perforce IPLM makes it possible. Perforce IPLM is a comprehensive IP lifecycle management (IPLM) platform. It enables companies of all sizes to have complete control over the design and integration of both internal and external design elements. This includes libraries, new analog and digital design, and standalone IP. Perforce IPLM maximizes internal and external design traceability and reuse by tightly coupling IP creators with IP consumers.

Microwave Office supports the design of RF passive components such as filters, couplers, and attenuators, as well as active devices operating under small-signal (AC) conditions such as low noise and buffer amplifiers. The linear configuration provides simulation of S-parameters (Y/Z/H/ABCD), small-signal gain, linear stability, noise figure, return loss/voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and more, as well as real-time tuning, optimization, and yield analysis. All E-series Microwave Office portfolios include synchronous schematic / layout editors, 2D/3D viewers, comprehensive libraries of high-frequency distributed transmission models, surface-mount vendor component RF models with footprints, measurement-based simulations, and RF plotting. Microwave Office PCB enables linear and nonlinear RF circuit design with the robust APLAC HB simulator and its powerful multi-rate HB, transient-assisted HB, and time-variant simulation engine, supporting analysis of RF/microwave circuits.
