Robust framework interfaces and translators allow you to move easily from your preferred design tool into Sonnet and back out of Sonnet to your design tool.

Framework Interfaces
	Sonnet Supported
	Agilent EEsof EDA's ADS Interface
	The new Sonnet/Agilent ADS Interface gives you even tighter connectivity between the Agilent ADS framework and the best-in-class planar EM simulator from Sonnet.
	AWR® Microwave Office® Interface
	The Sonnet/Microwave Office interface provides tight integration between these two popular applications. This interface allows co-simulation of circuit theory and best-in-class EM simulation. Sonnet's analysis engine (em) can be run directly from Microwave Office. The "native editor" option allows access to the entire Sonnet Suite of tools and functions while keeping the EM structure and data within the Microwave Office framework.
	Cadence® Virtuoso® Interface
	This Sonnet plug-in for the Cadence Virtuoso suite enables the RFIC designer to configure and run the EM analysis from a layout cell, extract accurate electrical models, and create a schematic symbol for Analog Artist and RFDE simulation.
	Third Party Supported
	CST DESIGN STUDIO® and CST MICROWAVE STUDIO®
	CST DS can include Sonnet projects as part of a larger system for analysis. Sonnet em can be run for the fast optimization of single sub devices within the larger system, a re-simulation of the complete system is not necessary. CST MWS can import Sonnet projects.

	Eagleware GENESYS™
	Specifically designed for those who prefer to use Sonnet's electromagnetic simulator, Sonnet Integration enables access to Sonnet's family of powerful EM simulators directly from the GENESYS design environment. For more information, click here to visit their website.
	CAD Design Software
	The SIMLINK SONNET interface is an add-on module to CAD Design Software Suites. This interface, executed from within CAD Design Software, exports entities on selected CDS layers and writes a .SON file for use with SONNET® analysis software. The SIMLINK SONNET interface can be used in conjunction with any CAD Design Software Suite, but is ideal for use with PCB Designer Suite and RF Designer Suite. These suites automate all types of PCB and RF (Analog/Digital/Wireless/Microwave) designs. For more information, click here to view the SIMLINK SONNET datasheet.
	Applied Computational Sciences (ACS) LINC2
	LINC2 from ACS offers exact circuit synthesis, schematic capture, circuit simulation, and optimization in a single affordable design environment. Schematic capture and a high performance circuit simulator form the foundation on which LINC2 seamlessly integrates its comprehensive suite of circuit synthesis modules. LINC2 directly interfaces to leading RF and Microwave design suites, allowing it to be used stand-alone or by leveraging its capabilities with those of other major packages. The LINC2/Sonnet interface uses a single button click to automatically transfer the LINC2 layout geometry into Sonnet for world-class EM analysis.  For more information, click here to visit their website.

Translators
	Sonnet Supported
	DXF and GDSII Import and Export
	Draw your circuits and antennas in the drawing tool of your choice, and translate them into the Sonnet EM analysis environment through our bi-directional DXF or GDSII file translators. These translator add-ons are totally integrated into the Sonnet Project Editor and accessed through the File Import and Export menus.
	Third Party Supported
	Sonnet-DXF to Extended Gerber File Converter
	This free translator, Sonnet-DXF to Extended Gerber RS274X, enables you to transfer your Sonnet geometries to CAE tools such as Mentor Boardstation through the intermediate DXF file format. The Sonnet-DXF to Extended Gerber RS274X translator is provided as a free download.
	LinkCAD®
	LinkCAD is a translator that can convert from many formats into Sonnet project file (.son) format. For more information, visit their website at www.linkcad.com.
