HyperLynx AMS extends SPICE-based PCB analysis with mixed-signal simulation, parasitic analysis, and Xpedition integration – helping verify real-world performance before fabrication.
Our PLM Implementation Services
Mixed-Signal, Mixed-Domain Analysis
SPICE & VHDL-AMS models in one environment – covering time-domain simulation across electrical, electro-mechanical, & multi-discipline systems.
Seamless Schematic-to-Layout Flow
Create your schematic once. The same design drives both simulation and PCB layout in Xpedition – no duplicate drawing, no data re-entry.
Advanced Parametric Simulation
Sweep parameters, explore sensitivities, predict manufacturing yields, & verify corner-case behaviour – all on a virtual prototype before fabrication.
PCB Parasitic Impact Analysis
Incorporate real PCB layout parasitics into simulation – so your analog and mixed-signal circuits are validated against physical behaviour.

PCB Parasitic Evaluation Workflow
PCB Parasitic Evaluation Workflow
Simulate the original design with ideal connections – establishing a clean pre-layout performance baseline.
PCB Layout in Xpedition
Transition the verified schematic into Xpedition Layout – with full data continuity between simulation and layout.
Extract PCB Parasitics
Use HyperLynx Advanced Solvers to extract parasitic values – resistance, inductance, and capacitance – from the PCB database.
Back-Annotate to Schematic
Apply extracted parasitics to the schematic in Xpedition Designer – updating the model to reflect physical board behaviour.
Post-Layout Simulation
Re-run the simulation in HyperLynx AMS with parasitics included – revealing how the physical layout affects circuit performance.
Compare & Resolve
Compare pre- and post-layout results to identify layout-related issues – and resolve them before fabrication begins.
Xpedition Integration
Single Schematic Source
Create your schematic once in Xpedition Designer. The same design drives both HyperLynx AMS simulation and Xpedition Layout - eliminating duplicates.
Bi-Directional Design Flow
Simulation results feed directly back into the design - and layout parasitics can be back-annotated into the simulation in a closed-loop workflow.
Layout-Verified Performance
Validate analog and mixed-signal performance against the actual physical PCB before a single prototype is built.
