On market since 1998, EMPIRE XCcel has always been the first choice for EM design of complex structures. The new 5.40 release is even further optimised to solve huge simulation domains, hundreds of wavelength in size.
New Speed records:
- Cluster solver (solving large simulation problems efficiently on multiple PC's) 5520 MCells/s, 12 low cost Intel Core i7-920 Computers, 2.66 GHz clock frequency
- Single PC solver 2200 Mcells/s, Intel Dual Xeon WX5580, 3.2 GHz clock frequency
- Single PC solver, Simulation on Hard Disc 386 MCells/s, 40 GBytes Structure on a 12 GByte low cost Intel Core i7-920 Computer 2.66 GHz clock frequency
New features include:
- Cluster solver (solving large simulation problems efficiently on multiple PC's)
- High speed simulation of large problems on hard disc
- RF Planar object library
- Improved layer control and editor
- Simplified port creation menu (horizontal, vertical and perpendicular ports)
- Extended 3D object library (3D wire, bow,...)
- Parameter definition for geometric or physical variations, boundaries, operations, automatic mesh refinement, number of time steps
- Improved import/export filters (gerber, dxf)
- Reduced memory and accelerations for preprocessing & simulation setup
- Improved automatic meshing (object mesh hints, ...)
- 3D visualization: Boundaries, Viewport, 3D Motion, Textures
