Altair has acquired MODELiiS, a supplier of electronic design automation software for circuit modeling, system design and simulation tools based in Grenoble, France. Capitalizing on strong expertise in digital and analog domains, their solutions are geared towards the Internet of Things (IoT), autonomous vehicles, and complex hybrid systems.
MODELiiS was originally a start-up company incubated within a larger EDA design firm. Their main products simulate C code behavior for various chips and include a very high-performance SPICE circuit simulator. This technology is used in EDA, system modeling, electromagnetics and to model sensors for the IoT.
“With the MODELiiS acquisition, we plan to continue our growth and investment in our EDA capabilities to deliver the most relevant, optimal, simulation-driven design solutions for IoT,” said James R. Scapa, Altair’s Founder, Chairman and CEO. “Simulation and optimization are fundamental to the design of communication and controls for everything from personal devices to autonomous vehicles.”
With easy-to-use solutions for applications from electronics to complex hybrid systems, MODELiiS EDA technology is expected to solidify and strengthen Altair’s value proposition for development of IoT and autonomous transportation products.
