Spectre XPS (eXtensive Partitioning Simulator) is a FastSPICE simulator that enables simulation for large, complex chip designs.

CST Studio Suite 2014 includes a palette of high-frequency and low-frequency solvers; provides technology for applications such as printed circuit boards, cables and charged particle devices. Can import, manipulate and export models from CAD and EDA software. System Assembly and Modeling tool allows multiple full-wave 3D and circuit simulations to be combined into a series of tasks to be carried out automatically. Simplifies multiphysics workflows, has more PCB functionality, and support for nearfield sources in the frequency-domain and integral equation solvers. Transient and frequency-domain solvers support new meshing techniques for tetrahedral and hexahedral meshes. Includes improved CAD export; version control for CAD data; sub-volume field monitors; MWS transient solver; time-averaged power loss monitor; combined CPU-GPU computing; MWS frequency domain solver; MWS integral equation solver; MWS asymptotic solver; enhanced EDA import tools; decoupling capacitor optimization; transient spectrum extraction with AC Task, and faster MOR and Transient Task.
