Article Rating: Not Rated

Version 11.1 of Ansoft’s HFSS software for 3D full-wave electromagnetic field simulation is now available, offering a number of new enhancements. The tool now offers meshing as well as model resolution and validation features. It supports Nastran (.nas) geometry import as well as Parasolid and Unigraphic geometry import (the latter under Windows only). It also offers enhanced post-processing features.

HFSS is a popular software package for S-parameter and full-wave Spice extraction and for the electromagnetic simulation of high-frequency and high-speed components. HFSS is widely used for the design of on-chip embedded passives, PCB interconnects, antennas, RF/microwave components and high-frequency IC packages.

HFSS v11.1 is available for the following platforms: Microsoft Windows XP Professional, XP Professional x64 Edition, Server 2003, Server 2003 x64 Edition, Red Hat Enterprise Linux versions 3 and 4 (32- and 64-bit OS), SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (32- and 64-bit OS) and Solaris versions 8-10 (64-bit OS).
