New Improvements

Analog Insydes continues to provide new and improved features. A few highlights are listed below.

Features added in Version 2.2

• New interfaces for Spectre
  • Simulation data import
    Analog Insydes provides a new interface to the Spectre circuit design environment. The Analog Insydes command ReadSimulationData has been extended to read Spectre PSF files.
    
    
  • Netlist import via Analog Artist
    A platform-independent netlist converter with small-signal data and model-card import functionality is now available for Analog Artist files generated by Analog Insydes' Spectre interface.
    
    
  • Cadence DFII Integration Package
    This integration package allows for generation of Analog Insydes netlist descriptions from within your Analog Artist session.
    
    
• Extended device model library
  The Analog Insydes device model library was extended to handle Spectre-compatible models for R, L, C, D, BJT, MOS, and JFET.
  
  
• Full integration of high-performance MathLink binaries on Mac OS X
  Analog Insydes is now fully compatible with Mac OS X, including native high-performance MathLink binaries for the QZ algorithm and matrix approximation.
