Aava Mobile uses Microwave Office in the design of world's first open mobile device platform.

Aava Mobile reference device running MeeGo

Founded in 2009, Aava Mobile was established by a team of engineers with a strong background in mobile phone development who wanted to build an opensource mobile device platform for the OEM/ODM market.

Aava Mobile's open devices harness the creativity of developer communities and provide the flexibility to OEM/ODMs and mobile operators to incorporate their own user interface, content and services to differentiate their devices from competitors.

The company has now developed the world's first open mobile device platform, and for developers seeking to write Android/MeeGo apps to run on upcoming Intel Atom Z600 smartphones, Aava provides a special software development kit (SDK) that is compatible with current Android/MeeGo SDK software. It also provides a fully-functioning hardware device with working modem/antennae connectivity and other peripherals.

Aava use Microwave Office in their printed circuit board designs to simulate the critical tracks/traces and find optimum performance by varying the line widths and PCB layer stack-ups.

Microwave Office enables the company to simulate key components/tracks for confidence and to help tackle performance issues by providing a good starting point for the actual lab work. Its designers have worked with APLAC for over a decade and were confident about working with APLAC models. Key benefits of Microwave Office for Aava include the software's ease of use, simulation speed, accuracy of models, and innovative technologies.
