ECAD Import Module

Layer Selections

The ECAD Import Module now generates selections for imported layers to enable a more efficient simulation setup. For example, when importing ODB++™ archives and GDSII files, the selections have easily recognizable names that are generated from the layer names. In the Import settings window, you can rename the layers or choose to keep the names found in the file.

Updated Unit Handling

COMSOL Multiphysics version 5.2 now displays the length unit of a selected ECAD file. A new check box either enables or disables the update of the geometry sequence length unit to the detected unit in the file.

The length unit of the ODB++™ archive selected above is mm. Selecting the Update geometry unit check box changes the geometry length unit of the model to mm.

The length unit of the ODB++™ archive selected above is mm. Selecting the Update geometry unit check box changes the geometry length unit of the model to mm.
