AWR® Introduces an Electromagnetic Track and Adds
Many New Features to AWR.TV
  EL
SEGUNDO, Calif. — August 17, 2009 — AWR, the innovation leader in high-frequency electronic design
automation (EDA), today announced it has added a broad array of content related to electromagnetics (EM) to
AWR.TV, its comprehensive multimedia Web resource for technical
and product information. The site has also been enhanced to make it easier for viewers to find information on
specific topics, along with a host of other new features that dramatically improve the user experience.
AWR.TV, which AWR launched in January, is designed to be a
“one-stop” resource for product information, tutorial presentations, and application-specific discussions about
EDA topics and AWR products. AWR has now added a new category for EM that features tutorial video presentations on
transmission lines, interactive solvers, EM models, solver types, and a two-part series on ports.
The EM
material can be found on the new
AWR.TV "Applications" channel under "Electromagnetic" and is
presented by Dr. John Dunn, a recognized expert in EM modeling and simulation for high-frequency and high-speed
circuit applications. Dr. Dunn is a senior applications engineer at AWR and develops and presents AWR training
material to customers world-wide. Before joining AWR, he was head of the interconnect modeling group at Tektronix
and a professor of electrical engineering at the University of Colorado, Boulder, where he led a research group in
EM simulation and modeling. Dr. Dunn received his Ph.D. and M.S. degrees in applied physics from Harvard
University and is a senior member of IEEE.
Other enhancements to
AWR.TV include applications tracks for MMICs, printed circuit
boards, and signal integrity, the option to download all material as iPod and iPhone-compatible podcasts, the
ability to search through all content on the site, an RSS feed that allows subscribers to receive immediate
notification of new material added by AWR, a single-click rating system for providing feedback on the site’s
presentations, and much more. In addition to the new Applications channel, the content within the existing Product
channel has also grown substantially since
AWR.TV’s inception, and includes additions to Microwave Office®,
Analog Office®, Visual System Simulator™ (VSS), APLAC®, and AXIEM™ software, as well as new interviews with AWR
executives and AWR Alliance Partner firms.
“The beauty of
AWR.TV is in its ability to provide comprehensive product
information, tutorial presentations, and application-specific discussions through concise software
demonstrations,” said Sherry Hess, vice president of marketing. "Customer response has been positive and we'll
continue to seek new ways to improve this powerful knowledge resource.”
