Ansoft Corporation announces Q3D Extractor™ v7, the company's 3D quasi-static electromagnetic parasitic extraction tool. Q3D Extractor computes 3D RLC/2D RLCG parameters from interconnect structures and automatically generates an equivalent SPICE circuit. This release introduces new features that make it easier and more reliable for engineers to import 3D CAD models and integrated circuit (IC), printed circuit board (PCB) and package layouts from third-party tools. A new fault-tolerant meshing algorithm has been added to make the meshing process tolerant to anomalies that occur in geometric data from CAD/EDA software programs. The release also provides automatic and interactive model healing techniques that allow users to detect and repair errors in imported geometry. These new capabilities reduce engineering time by streamlining the process of design translation and parasitic extraction.
