MPLAB Mindi Analog Simulator
MPLABยฎ Mindiโข Analog Simulator reduces circuit design time and design risk by simulating analog circuits prior to hardware prototyping. The simulation tool uses a SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation environment, with options to use SPICE or piecewise linear modeling, that can cover a very wide set of possible simulation needs. This capable simulation interface is paired with proprietary model files from Microchip to model specific Microchip analog components in addition to generic circuit devices. This simulation tool installs and runs locally on your PC. Once downloaded, no Internet connection is required, and the simulation run time is not dependent on a remotely located server. The result is fast, accurate analog circuit simulations. Run the simulation tool directly on your own PC; once installed no Internet connection is required.

Microwave Office
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.

PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS)
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.
