Revolutionary multi-disciplinary solver for printed circuit
boards (PCB) and integrated circuits (IC)
TROY, Mich., March 20, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Altair (Nasdaq: ALTR), a global leader in
computational intelligence, announced the upcoming release of
Altair SimSolid for electronics, bringing game-changing fast, easy,
and precise multi-physics scenario exploration for
electronics, from chips, PCBs, and ICs to full system
design.
"As the electronics industry pushes the boundaries of complexity
and miniaturization, engineers have struggled with simulations that
often compromise on detail for expediency. Altair SimSolid will
empower engineers to capture the intricate complexities of PCBs and
ICs without simplification," said James R.
Scapa, founder and chief executive officer,
Altair. "Traditional simulation methods often require
approximations when analyzing PCB structures due to their
complexity. Altair SimSolid eliminates these approximations to run
more accurate simulations for complex problems with vast
dimensional disparities."
Altair SimSolid has revolutionized conventional analysis in its
ability to accurately predict complex structural problems with
blazing-fast speed while eliminating the complexity of laborious
hours of modeling. It eliminates geometry simplification and
meshing, the two most time-consuming and expertise-intensive tasks
done in traditional finite element analysis. As a result, it
delivers results in seconds to minutes – up to 25x faster than
traditional finite element solvers – and effortlessly handles
complex assemblies.
Having experienced fast adoption in the aerospace and automotive
industries, two sectors that typically experience challenges
associated with massive structures, Altair SimSolid is poised to
play a significant role in the electronics market. The
initial release, expected in Q2 2024, will support structural and
thermal analysis for PCBs and ICs with full electromagnetics
analysis coming in a future release.
The simulation market is increasingly looking to leverage AI
technology to develop physics-informed neural networks. Altair
SimSolid's unmatched ability to rapidly and accurately model and
simulate complex electronics systems will become essential for
training large use cases quickly and economically.
Streamlined Electromagnetic Simulation – No Mesh
Necessary
The journey from electronic computer-aided design (ECAD) to
simulation has historically been strewn with the obstacles of mesh
generation – a necessary but time-intensive step that delays
insights and stretches project timelines. Altair SimSolid's
meshless technology will tackle intricate challenges like signal
integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), and electromagnetic
compatibility/interference (EMC/EMI), all while making
electromagnetic simulations more accessible and efficient. The
solution's ECAD to simulation workflow will empower users to
surpass conventional boundaries and seamlessly scale from meters to
nanometers, ensuring every detail is perfectly rendered. This
translates to faster time to results and the ability to solve even
more complex electromagnetic problems, empowering engineers to
achieve superior design outcomes.
A Comprehensive Simulation Suite
As Altair SimSolid advances towards the inclusion of full-wave
electromagnetics, it showcases Altair's vision of a comprehensive,
multi-disciplinary simulation environment. This evolution not only
sets a new standard against traditional, mesh-reliant systems but
it also promises a future where thermal, structural, and
electromagnetic challenges are addressed within a unified,
meshless platform for rapid and precise design
iterations.
