AWR's Analog Office High-Frequency Design Suite Selected by Finisar
Applied Wave Research, Inc. (AWRT) ( http://www.mwoffice.com ) announced a corporate agreement with Finisar Corporation for Finisar to purchase AWR's Analog OfficeT 2004 design suite. Finisar's optics division will utilize the Analog Office software for the design of its high-speed optical transceivers.
Finisar is a technology leader for fiber optic subsystems and network test and monitoring systems. The company's products enable high-speed data communications for networking and storage applications over gigabit Ethernet local area networks (LANs), fiber channel storage area networks (SANs), and metropolitan area networks (MANs) using fiber channel, internet protocol (IP), and SONET/SDH protocols.
"Finisar takes great pride in providing leading-edge products that exemplify our commitment to engineering excellence, product reliability, and customer value. The Analog Office open, integrated platform and unique RF-aware design methodology provide our engineers with the accurate RF modeling and analysis needed to design products that meet our exacting standards," said James Douma, transponder engineering manager at Finisar.
The Analog Office solution is specifically architected and optimized from the ground up for analog and radio-frequency (RF) IC designs. The 2004 version has been enhanced to provide the industry's most open, unified design environment, offering full interaction with a comprehensive and powerful set of integrated tools. The toolset spans the entire IC design flow, from system-level to circuit-level design and verification, for complete top-to-bottom and front-to-back analog and RFIC design.
