Quantic X-Microwave Launches Newly Enhanced Layout Tool for RF Designers

AUSTIN, Texas, June 16, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Quantic X-Microwave®, a business of Quantic Electronics® (“Quantic”) and leading provider of RF & microwave solutions, today announced the launch of its newly enhanced Layout Tool, a powerful interactive design environment enabling part selection and layout of signal chains using X-MWblocks®.

Specifically tailored for customers of Quantic X-Microwave’s patented X-MWblocks, this tool provides a seamless experience for part selection and physical layout of signal chains, making it easier than ever to design with X-MWblocks, on prototype plates or in standard connectorized housing.

Key Features of the Updated Layout Tool include:

  • Expanded Component Library: Over 6000 X-MWblocks are available in the design library, with additional products being added frequently
  • 3D Functionality: A new feature allowing the user to toggle 3D mode and rotate their circuit design or assembly 360 degrees.
  • Enhanced Functionality: A redesigned interface provides designers with a more intuitive and efficient user experience
  • Automated Wall Algorithm: The automated wall placement algorithm allows designers to construct an arbitrary shaped channelized enclosure at the prototype phase
  • Export Capabilities: Designers can export a complete list of components and accessories to a CSV file for easy reference and documentation, or to request a quote

The newly enhanced Layout Tool will be showcased with live demonstrations at the 2025 International Microwave Symposium (IMS), June 17-19 in San Francisco, CA. Visit Quantic X-Microwave at Booth 1251 to learn more.

Quantic X-Microwave is committed to providing innovative and valuable products, tools and resources to the RF & microwave industry. The new Layout Tool requires users to register, but remains free to use. Access it today via www.quanticxmw.com or at: Layout Tool – Quantic X-Microwave
