CST與主流軟件的協(xié)同—CST之接口綜述

文章來源: 互聯(lián)網(wǎng)    錄入: mweda.com   

CST設(shè)計環(huán)境是一個開發(fā)平臺,具有廣泛的互通性,提供了大量的與業(yè)界知名軟件的接口,包括結(jié)構(gòu)、Layout、SI、SPICE、IBIS、SAR等,以下介紹CST2009版的各種接口。

圖1中,Simlab是我們的戰(zhàn)略合作伙伴、Gerber是應(yīng)用于板級的、Nastran是建模用的、Cadence Allegro是大名鼎
鼎的EDA軟件、PRO/E Wildfire 3、CATIA V5 R17以及Autodesk Inventor 11都是CST可以吃進的CAD格式。

單箭頭指向CST的表示CST可以導入該種格式,單箭頭指出表示CST可以導出該種格式,而雙箭頭表示CST即可以導
入,也可以導出該種格式。


圖2中,IBIS導入是應(yīng)用于板級仿真的,Mentor Graphics Expedition、Zuken CR 5000等都是PCB板的各種格式,CST都與它們之間有著相應(yīng)接口。

  • 網(wǎng)友回復

    純粹就使用來講(兩個軟件對不同的問題,都有自己的長處),HFSS還是更方便,尤其是后處理。另外,CST集成這么多功能,導致使用很不穩(wěn)定,好像集成并不好.
