Overview
|
|
|
Altair PollEx is the most
comprehensive and integrated set of PCB design viewing,
analysis and verification tools. It provides powerful
rule-based checking tools (DFM, DFA and DFE) to detect
faults early in design and also provides easy solution
for SI and thermal analysis of PCBs using the integrated
parts and material libraries.
PollEx is not just a printed circuit board (PCB)
verification tool, it is solution that accelerates the
development of today’s smart, connected, and tightly
packaged electronic products. It is used by global
industry leaders to improve efficiency, increase
performance, enable teamwork, and enhance collaboration.
Altair offers tools for full system analysis that
integrate mechanical, thermal, electromagnetic, and
embedded code design flow with PCB design.

PollEx PCB Solvers
PollEx PCB Solvers investigate Signal Integrity
(SI), Power Integrity(PI) and thermal PCB problems
thanks to intuitive and easy to use solvers which
are fully integrated into the PollEx PCB Modeler and
the Unified Part Editor (UPE). Included are
efficient domain SI solvers with SPICE and IBIS
model support for wave propagation delay,
reflection, crosstalk, eye diagrams, scattering,
admittance and impedance matrix calculations.
