EL SEGUNDO, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
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 the
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."
