Overview

This Webinar will present an innovative system-integration methodology, illustrated using sample systems, to help you create a fully functioning, on-time product, rather than one that gets to market late, with intermittent field failures.

Today’s cross-discipline electro-mechanical “mechatronic” systems (combining mechanical, electrical, control, and software systems) require highly coordinated modeling, simulation, and interaction among members of the extended design team.

What You Will Learn

  • Basic analog, digital, mixed-signal and multi-technology modeling, leveraging a large library of built-in SPICE models, easily added vendor models, and using datasheet-driven graphical modeling methods.
  • Digital hardware modeling and simulation running in the context of a complete electro-mechanical/mechatronic system.
  • Parametric and statistical analysis methods to improve quality and reduce manufacturing and warranty costs.
  • Going beyond analog and digital electronics to include thermal, electro-magnetic and mechanical components, as well as digital logic and other critical aspects of the mechatronic system, using VHDL-AMS.
  • Collaboration with colleagues who are using Simulink for control algorithm design, so they can include higher fidelity hardware models “in-the-loop.”
  • Execution and verification of C-code from your embedded system control or supervisory software function, also in the context of the mechatronic system.

What do I need to watch and hear this web seminar?

Mentor Graphics’ web seminars are delivered using Adobe Connect. To watch the seminar all you need to have installed is the Adobe Flash Player, version 8 or later on Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Solaris. The Flash Player is already installed on over 98% of internet connected computers worldwide so you will not have to install any software prior to attending the meeting. You will be able to login to the seminar room 15 minutes prior to the start time on the day of the presentation. You can hear the audio using your computer’s speakers via VoIP (Voice over IP) and background music will play prior to the beginning of the presentation.
