ELECTROMAGNETIC (EM) effects must often be included to make a software
model complete, In many cases, a traditional microwave circuit simula
tor may fall short when there is parasitic coupling between densely-pa
cked circuits; when there are topological differences between a model
and existing circuit libraries; when the model range of a simulator is
exceeded in length, width, or frequency; or when radiation effects (w
hether desired or undesired) occur. Fortunately, Maxwell Strata from A
nsoft Corp, (Pittsburgh, PA) provides the accuracy associated with EM
simulation but without long computing times.
