Keysight Collaborates with Siemens EDA

Data exchange between Keysight's Advanced Design System and Siemens' Xpedition accelerates product development.

Data exchange between Keysight's Advanced Design System and Siemens' Xpedition accelerates product development.

Keysight Technologies, Inc. and Siemens EDA have teamed up to accelerate twireless and defense system design. The integration between Keysight’s Advanced Design System (ADS) and the Siemens Xpedition Enterprise suite of EDA tools enables engineers to co-design digital systems and radio frequency (RF) circuits by performing layout and manufacturing in Xpedition and RF Circuit and electromagnetic simulation in Keysight ADS.

The collaboration builds on the prior dynamic intertool integration from Keysight and Siemens EDA that enabled system design to have bidirectional integration with RF and microwave engineering tools. This initiative integrates complete hierarchical designs bidirectionally between Keysight ADS and Siemens Xpedition Designer and Layout.

Engineers can now transition between detailed RF design in ADS and system-level design in Xpedition. This helps optimize performance in areas including 5G/6G communications, advanced radar systems, and electronic warfare applications.

The new product is included in Keysight Advanced Design System 2025 and Siemens Xpedition Enterprise release 2409.

“We have a long-established track record collaborating with Siemens to support customers in enabling the next generation of wireless design,” says Nilesh Kamdar, EDA Design & Verification lead at Keysight. “The bidirectional integration allows engineers to optimize performance across various applications, including 5G/6G and radar systems.”

“As engineering teams strive to achieve digital transformation, the digital thread between RF and electronic system design becomes more critical,” says AJ Incorvaia, senior vice president, Electronic Board Systems, Siemens Digital Industries Software. “We’re pleased to announce improved integration enabling concurrent design to optimize system performance and improve quality while accelerating design closure.”
