Hello forum participants : This is a subject very near & dear to my heart and I am thrilled to see it come up in this forum. If there is an more appropriate place to continue this thread, please advise..
Try Innoveda (formerly ViewLogic) for their "Quiet Expert" . It is a fast running Expert-system algorithm based "rules" analyzer. see : http://www.innoveda.com/products/quick_buildit.asp#qtex It was developed by the <famous> University of Missouri at Rolla Consortium. See : http://www.emclab.umr.edu/consortium/ In commercial fairness, the EMC expert system is also available from Incases. Quiet Expert also does "thumbnail" very fast (but limited accuracy) electromagnetic radiation analysis. It will run with very minimal, global or generic technology models for the digital devices. It is NOT a signal integrity tool like (the attractive) Hyperlynx, now also owned by Innoveda. We at Motorola AIEG (Automotive Industrial Electronics Group) are in the process of evaluating and applying QE to our automotive electronic modules and would welcome collaboration with other users on general tool usage learning, hints, kinks and issues.
