PITTSBURGH, March 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/
-- Atmel® Corporation is using engineering
simulation solutions from ANSYS (NASDAQ: ANSS) to model, analyze
and optimize its broad Internet of Things (IoT) product portfolio
from scalable embedded microcontrollers and microprocessors to
wireless connectivity gateways.
Power consumption, data security and communication standards
compliance are critical design requirements for IoT applications.
Striking an optimal balance among such concerns as power
efficiency, antenna integration performance, security and cost is a
key design challenge faced by engineers developing devices that
enable the proliferation of IoT.
Atmel's industry-leading SmartConnect WINC1500 low-power WiFi
2.4GHz IEEE 802.11 b/g/n system-on-chip (SoC) and the latest ARM®
Cortex®-M0+ microcontroller (MCU) deliver extreme low power,
compact size and comprehensive connectivity. The Atmel design teams
around the world leveraged ANSYS® HFSS™,
ANSYS RedHawk™ and ANSYS Totem™ to design and
validate these complex SoCs and platforms used across multiple IoT
application segments. ANSYS simulation solutions help enable Atmel
to meet stringent power/performance requirements, ensure reliable
operations across a wide range of frequencies and deliver products
with tight time-to-market constraints.
"As a leading provider of IoT solutions, we are committed to
delivering the most comprehensive and highly integrated IoT
solutions with world-class accuracy, performance, reliability and
ease-of-use," said Marc Rougee, vice
president of strategic initiatives, Atmel Corporation. "ANSYS
engineering simulation tools give us the confidence that the design
of our products will meet our customers' power and performance
targets to enable next-generation secure and connected designs for
IoT."
"IoT is creating tremendous growth opportunities for the entire
electronics ecosystem, from semiconductor manufacturing to systems
integration to applications development. ANSYS is excited to be a
partner to the Atmel design teams as they develop innovative
technologies that fuel machine-to-machine communication and the
industrial Internet," said Aveek
Sarkar, ANSYS vice president.
