AWR at IMS2014 in Tampa, FL – visit us in the NI/AWR booth #633

May 15, 2014

We have an exciting agenda of activities that provide insight into the powerful, innovative tools and technologies of our newly released V11 NI AWR Design Environment™, which includes Microwave Office®, Analog Office®, Visual System Simulator™ (VSS), AXIEM®, and Analyst™ for the design of MMICs, RF PCBs, microwave modules, RFICs, communication systems, radar systems, antennas, and more.

NI AWR Design Environment Software Demos in Booth #633
 

  • What’s New in V11 – come by to see the new features in V11 NI AWR Design Environment and be entered into our raffle for a GoPro camera!
  • Analyst 3D FEM EM – learn how our novel use model for 3D FEM EM technology within the NI AWR Design Environment greatly simplifies EM'ing your passive structures. With our ready-built 3D parts library and user-configurable 3D PCell editor, Analyst is even more powerful than before.
  • Microwave Office – make this software your first stop on the NI Power Amplifier Experience and see how AWR is the go-to software for PA designers. A multitude of other demonstrations and applications will be showcased…just let us know your specific application/design area of interest (MMIC, RFIC, RF PCB, modules and more).
  • Visual System Simulator – whether designing radar systems or a wireless communication system (802.11ac), VSS has new features that make system-level design more robust. Plus with LabVIEW co-simulation, a wider range of functionality to tap into is now at your fingertips.
