Coventor's 3D Visualization Speeds Multi-Disciplinary Integration

By DE Editors

Coventor, Inc. (Cary, NC), developer of MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) design-automation software, offers a suite of software tools for MEMS and micro-fluidic design, modeling, and simulation.

ARCHITECT is part of the CoventorWare suite, which enables creating, modeling, and simulating the design; DESIGNER for 3D solid modeling; ANALYZER for simulating coupled physical fields; and INTEGRATOR for extracting reduced-order models for integration with standard mixed-signal simulators.

Coventor says this suite of software is for designers of RF (radio-frequency) MEMS subsystems and other complex products who need a 3D visualization capability that realistically models the behavior of the disparate technologies incorporated in their designs. This is to help them achieve greater functionality, smaller size, and faster time-to-market for cell phones, PDAs, and products that must integrate digital, analog, and RF circuitry with mechanical parts.
