Agilent Technologies’ Latest 3-D EM Simulation Platform Provides New Solver, Speed Improvements

SANTA CLARA, Calif., June 7, 2011 – Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today announced the release of
Electromagnetic Professional 2011.07, an electromagnetic modeling and simulation platform that creates 3-D models
and analyzes the electrical performance of packages, connectors, antennas and other RF components. Known
as EMPro, the platform is tightly integrated with Agilent’s
Advanced Design System
software for the design of RF and high-speed integrated circuits, modules and PC boards. The release features
significant new capabilities and improved speed for modeling RF and high-speed components.
EMPro 2011.07 delivers a new Eigenmode solver, which quickly finds the resonant frequencies for cavity filters, a
common high-frequency component used in wireless communication systems. Filter designers can also visualize the
resulting electromagnetic fields at each resonant frequency and make adjustments to the cavity structure to
optimize filter performance. EMPro 2011.07 also provides faster simulations with existing solvers. The
Finite Element Method simulator in EMPro 2011.07 features CPU multithreading enhancements to the iterative solver,
resulting in a 2x speed improvement on computers with quad-core CPUs. The EmPro 2011.07 Finite Difference Time
Domain simulator offers GPU acceleration enhancements resulting in a 6x speed improvement on models with curved or
non-orthogonal surfaces, when using computers with CUDA-based GPU cards from NVIDIA.
As an added benefit, PC board designs can now be directly imported from Cadence Allegro to EMPro 2011.07, where
various signal integrity and EMI analyses can be performed. Additionally, EMPro 2011.07 incorporates several new
features that improve ease of use and design efficiency. For example, new toolbars and hotkeys make it easier and
faster to perform common operations. New cutplanes allow the user to view internal details of complex structures
and easily snap to internal objects. Animated electromagnetic field visualization enhancements provide improved
design insight.
Availability and Other Details Agilent’s EMPro 2011.07 will be available for download in July.

Agilent will demonstrate its newest design and test innovations for advanced RF and microwave research,
development and manufacturing at the
2011 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium, June 7-9, at the Baltimore Convention Center, Booth 813.
Attendees will be able to join Agilent and its solution partners on
Agilent Avenue to connect expert to expert with leaders in the industry.
