More Engineering, Less Clicking

Data Display See data more quickly with live simulation results and explore results intelligently with markers that lock to metrics.	Design Flow Eliminate manual re-entry by sending silicon design schematics back and forth to Cadence Virtuoso.	Schematic Save schematic entry time with named nodes on S-parameter block and element parameter frames that no longer place in front of component pins.	Measurement Reduce multiple test benches to one with the ability to make 2-port measurements like noise figure or max gain on N-port networks.
Layout Easily interact wtih multi-layer line types, save clicks with new editing commands, leverage the power of shape pre-processing and see more clearly with 2D translucency.	EM Save tedious clicks with automatic port placement and simulate direclty in HFSS from Microwave Office.	EM 3D Editor Efficiently manage complex 3D EM structures.
