Nimbic, Inc. (formerly Physware) was a company that developed electronic design automation (EDA) software. The company was founded in 2006 and was headquartered in Mountain View, California, United States.

Nimbic offered high speed 3D electromagnetic simulation [1] solutions for signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), integrity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and Simultaneous Switching Noise/Simultaneous Switching Output (SSN/SSO) Integrity. They also offered secure Cloud Computing solutions for electronic design.

In May 2014 Nimbic was acquired by Mentor Graphics,[2] which was in turn acquired in 2017 by Siemens and rebranded Siemens EDA.[3]

Portfolio

Nimbic develops 3D broadband electromagnetic field extractors and simulators for signal integrity, power integrity, EMI Analysis and SSN/SSO Analysis.[4] Their product range includes:

History

Nimbic (formerly Physware) was founded in December 2006 by Dr. Vikram Jandhyala.[citation needed]

In May 2010, Physware was named "2010 Cool Vendor in Semiconductors" by Gartner.[9]
