About Keysight Power Analyzer
Power Analyzer provides you with a simple and intuitive way to visualize the voltage distribution as well as the current density, the direction of the current, and the "hot spots". The results are displayed directly in the Altium Designer PCB editor, so you can see how your power grids interact with the rest of the design. Quickly identify and resolve your DC voltage and current density problems during the plate design process without prior knowledge of DC analysis. Design with confidence, knowing that you have accurate energy measurements for your designs. Power Analyzer can interactively measure voltage, and current density, or track current at any point, at one end, or differential between two points, within Altium Designer. Visualize the results and make adjustments as you design. Configurable HTML reports make it easy to record simulation activity, with voltage and current margins, power consumption data, and custom screenshots.

Sigrity X PowerSI
To help you tackle increasingly challenging issues related to simultaneous switching noise, signal coupling, and target voltage levels, Cadence® Sigrity X PowerSI® technology provides fast, accurate, and detailed electrical analysis of full IC packages or PCBs. It is cloud ready and can be used pre-layout to develop power- and signal-integrity guidelines, as well as post-layout to verify performance and improve a design without needing a prototype. Using Sigrity X PowerSI electromagnetic (EM) field solver technology, you can readily perform a broad range of studies to identify trace and via coupling issues, power/ground fluctuations caused by simultaneously switching outputs, and design regions that are under or over voltage targets. PowerSI technology also lets you perform extraction of frequency-dependent network parameter models and lets you visualize complex spatial relationships.

EveryCircuit
One animated circuit is worth a thousand equations and diagrams. Animations of voltages, currents, and charges are displayed right on top of the schematic, providing great insight into circuit operation. The real-time circuit simulation engine is custom-built for speed and interactivity. Easy one-click simulation, from simple resistors and logic gates to complex transistor-level oscillators and mixed-signal designs. While the simulation is running, you can flip switches, adjust potentiometers, tune LED current limiting resistors, ramp up input voltages, etc. The circuit will immediately respond to your changes, in real time. Mini-waveforms on top of schematic wires look different for digital and analog signals. Constant analog voltages are shown as numbers, digital wires are color-coded. Any pair of time-domain signals may be plotted in the XY mode. The oscilloscope scale and grid ticks are auto-updated to convenient values as the data changes.

PDN Analyzer
Altium’s PDN Analyzer tool integrates directly with Altium Designer so you can easily troubleshoot and detect issues like insufficient or excessive copper, uncontrolled voltage drops, marginal voltage at critical power pins, copper islands or peninsulas and similar issues that may be present with the power system in your PCB design. PDN refers to the power system on printed circuit boards for active circuits. This system includes all interconnections from the voltage regulator module and the metallization of pads and die on integrated circuits that are used to supply and return power current. IC supply voltage limits must be met across the entire length of the power delivery network. Accurately validating your power budget means considering minimum and maximum device limits, worst-case voltage drops, and combined return-path currents. PDN Analyzer shows you exactly where these problems arise.
