Linear Technology teams with AEi Systems to offer WCCA and SPICE modeling

LOS ANGELES, USA: Linear Technology, a leader in the design, manufacture, and marketing of high-performance analog integrated circuits, has signed and implemented a multiyear co-operation agreement and program with AEi Systems, the world leader in worst case circuit analysis (WCCA) and SPICE modeling.

Specialized AEi Systems support for Linear's customers
Under the agreement, AEi Systems and Linear Technology offer customers and partner organizations (including M.S. Kennedy and Aeroflex) design and analysis assistance for circuit design and use of Linear’s radiation-hardened (RH) products in space and other radiation-hardened applications.

AEi Systems is developing and maintaining a database of SPICE models and performance data necessary to perform worst case analysis of Linear Technology’s rad-hard products, as well as ICs and hybrids from M.S. Kennedy and Aeroflex, such as the popular MSK58xx series or the VRGxxxx series of linear regulators. AEi Systems also provides Linear customers and partners with nominal SPICE models of Linear’s RH products at no charge via AEi Systems’ website.

In addition, using AEi Systems’ extensive knowledge base, AEi Systems performs WCCA and provides design support for integration of Linear Technology ICs into new and upgraded customer designs.
