Mentor Graphics provides the most comprehensive set of electrical and electronic design automation solutions for the automotive, commercial vehicle, and off-highway industries around the world. Customers include most of the leading OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
Bring automotive design complexity
under control
System design tools from Mentor Graphics help you control the increasing complexity of designing and manufacturing today’s vehicles. Be it a sports car or a long-haul truck, each new model, feature, option, and variant multiplies the number of components and configurations that must be designed, integrated, produced, and managed.
Using proven electronic design automation (EDA) methods of modeling, simulation, and analysis, Mentor Graphics solutions help you speed the design and implementation of vehicle systems whilst reducing costs and improving quality, these solutions include:
- Product Definition and Architecture
- Flow Simulation and Thermal Measurement
- Multi- Discipline Simulation
- Electrical Systems Design and Wire Harness Engineering
- AUTOSAR Solutions
- Network Design & Integration
- In-vehicle Infotainment (IVI)
- Embedded Software
- Service & Documentation
Standards - AUTOSAR, GENIVI, SAE, ISO 26262 and JasPar
Mentor Graphics is committed to the success of the automotive industry. We are premium members of leading standard organizations such as AUTOSAR, GENIVI and JasPar, who are working to foster open standards for auto engineering architecture. Learn more about Mentor and AUTOSAR
