SAN FRANCISCOApplied Wave Research Inc. (AWR) and Vector Fields Ltd. have integrated Vector Fields' ConcertoT 3D electromagnetic (EM) modeling software into AWR's Microwave OfficeR circuit design platform. Vector Fields offers 2D and 3D EM modeling, analysis and simulation software that covers high-frequency applications using modeling techniques such as finite element, finite difference time-domain and method-of-moments.


"Vector Fields' Concerto software is used by designers worldwide for fast and accurate computation of EM fields and is especially suited to RF and microwave design," said James Spoto, AWR president and CEO. "We are pleased to have Concerto available through AWR's open and innovative EM Socket technology as a new EM analysis option to our Microwave Office customers. This collaborative effort, and the resulting interface, is part of AWR's ongoing open-systems strategy and contributes to our leadership position in providing best-in-class EM tools for RF and microwave design."

"Through AWR's EM Socket interface we have easily and seamlessly integrated our best-in-class 3D EM modeling software directly into the AWR design platform," said Kevin Ward, managing director of Vector Fields. "Designers are now able to design their circuit in the Microwave Office environment and interact with the Concerto EM simulator from a single-user interface. This integrated solution will help our joint customers create and analyze designs faster and more accurately."

The AWR/Vector Fields interface will be available without additional charge for all customers using both Concerto version 6.0 and Microwave Office 2006 software.

Sensor Products Introduces Tactilus Heat-Sink Analysis System
Tactilus heat-sink analysis system enables test and correction of surface contact and pressure distribution between the heat sink and its source. Can visualize actual contact forces and pressure distribution data on the components. As mounting screws between the CPU and the heat sink are torqued, it maps and measures the changing pressure distribution between the mating surfaces and displays it. Can be tested, manipulated, and repositioned in real-time. Provides pressure data needed for FEA simulation predictions. Is 0.015" thick; can be placed between the CPU and heat sink without affecting...

EMS’ Rude Awakening
Can high-mix, low-volume production succeed in China? You bet. In the 1970s, if you set up a contract manufacturing shop in a good location, customers eventually would walk through the doors. In the real world, things quickly changed for American companies, as OEMs, driven by maximizing shareholder value, searched for cheaper sources offshore. The first options were Hong Kong, Malaysia and Singapore. After prices increased in these countries, greener pastures were found in China....
