IVCAD Suite – Accurate RF Modeling and System Simulation
IVCAD Suite is a comprehensive software suite that manages the entire Radio-Frequency (RF) measurement, modeling, and simulation workflow—helping ensure circuit and system design success from the very beginning.
Originally developed by AMCAD Engineering, a company known for its advanced RF measurement and modeling technologies, the solution enables highly accurate component and circuit characterization. In May 2024, AMCAD Engineering was acquired by Dassault Systèmes (3DS). This acquisition strengthens the SIMULIA brand portfolio, enhancing and extending the capabilities of CST Studio Suite to deliver complete simulation solutions for active RF circuits and systems—both upstream and downstream of the antenna.
