Saber® software simulates physical effects in different engineering domains (hydraulic, electronic, mechanical, thermal, etc.) as well as signal-flow algorithms and software control. Saber is used in the automotive, aerospace, power and IC industries to simulate and analyze systems, sub-systems and components under a variety of different operational and environmental conditions. This dramatically improves design reliability while reducing the need for physical prototypes.

Key features include the industry's largest model library, advanced analyses (Monte Carlo, Stress, Sensitivity, etc.) to support Robust Design methodologies, integration into popular design environments, and support for standard modeling languages including MAST and VHDL-AMS. Saber improves design productivity while helping engineers create more robust, reliable and cost-efficient designs faster.

Wire harness design is the backbone of the electrical system for any vehicle, whether automotive, aerospace, or other form of transportation. Mission critical, safety, infotainment, etc. signals are carried through a complex network of wires and harness assemblies to every portion of the vehicle. Saber Harness was developed in partnership with leading automotive and truck manufacturers to ensure production-proven harness designs for the most demanding environments. Combined with the industry-standard Saber simulation tool suite, Saber Harness helps streamline costs, reduce design time, and ensures signal-carrying capacity for all components throughout the vehicle.

Industries

Automotive Automotive
The Saber design environment is the proven standard in automotive design groups worldwide. Automotive engineers rely on Saber's unique analysis capabilities to insure robust and reliable designs. With Saber, engineers are able to analyze the interactions between the complex hardware and software technologies used in modern automotive systems. Saber includes the ability to analyze performance sensitivities and stresses, investigate system failure modes, and evaluate a design's reliability and manufacturability all in the same environment. Automotive applications where Saber is successfully used include in-vehicle networking, powernet management, drive-by-wire control, powertrain, engine regulation, and many more. Production-proven with advanced capabilities, Saber is the top choice for Automotive engineers seeking the advantages of robust design and analysis.

Aerospace Aerospace
Flight-critical systems must operate accurately and reliably in extreme environments. Therefore, Aerospace engineers must consider and thoroughly analyze a variety of factors when designing aircraft systems. The Saber design environment is the preferred choice for Aerospace engineers seeking robust system analysis. Engineers can investigate environmental effects such as changes in atmospheric pressure, temperature swings, etc. They can also evaluate changes in system performance resulting from manufacturing tolerance spreads (stack up) in system components. Saber also allows engineers to inject failures in their designs to see how the rest of the system is affected. Aerospace applications where Saber is successfully used include fly-by-wire control, power network sizing and validation, radar and flight control computers, hydraulic power generation and distribution, and many others. Saber is the only tool that can deliver advanced analysis critical to the demanding safety and reliability requirements inherent in today’s Aerospace industry.
