Advanced Design System (ADS) is an electronic design automation software system produced by PathWave Design, a division of Keysight Technologies. It is commonly used in the design of high-frequency RF circuits and microwave circuits. It provides tools for schematic capture, layout, design rule checking and layout versus schematic and simulation. It supports frequency-domain and time-domain circuit simulation, and electromagnetic field simulation.
