About Us

The wireless revolution that brought smart phones and wifi-enabled everything to you, is largely thanks to AWR. Our software is what microwave and RF engineers use to design wireless products... from base stations to cellphones to satellite communications.

We accelerate the design and product development cycle of high-frequency ICs and systems found within the aerospace/defense, semiconductor, computer, consumer electronics, and telecommunications markets by reducing the time it takes from concept thru to manufacturing. The AWR advantage is simple:

• An intuitive use model that delivers an exceptional user experience
• An open design flow that supports 3rd party tools resulting in more compelling solutions.

Combined, these unique aspects of AWR software solutions maximize user productivity — eliminating errors and design redundancies — quickening the pace to market.

AWR, the innovation leader in high-frequency EDA, is headquartered in El Segundo, California and a wholly-owned subsidiary of National Instruments.
