AWR's Microwave Office high-frequency design software is allowing Creowave (Oulunsalo, Finland) to more rapidly and accurately design the precision duplexers, and bandpass, bandstop, and highpass filters used in its telecommunications test systems. First-time design success is critical to the company because its products have a very narrow time-to-market window, leaving no room for software training or multiple iterations. The technologies within Microwave Office software enable Creowave to successfully design custom filters to exacting specifications in a single design cycle.

“We chose Microwave Office because it is easy to learn, easy to use, fast and delivers precise results,” said Jyrkl Koski, Creowave Managing Director. “With Microwave Office it is possible to just start working without investing precious time in several weeks of training. For Creowave it is extremely important to succeed on the first round because our filters have to be on the market fast. We believe that is not possible with any other tools besides those from AWR.”
