You can do almost all of what you might do in Simulink or System Modeler in the VHDL-AMS simulator that comes with the Siemens (formerly Mentor) pcb design and layout packages, plus you can directly use SPICE models, VHDL models, and linear s-parameter models. You won’t get the control design tools of Simulink or the filter synthesis tools of a serious RF design package, though. There is a freely accessible web version here, thought, for the curious: https://eda.sw.siemens.com/en-US/pcb/partquest/explore/ https://eda.sw.siemens.com/en-US/pcb/partquest/explore/

Yep. You can also do most of it or even all of it with a number of other tools as well. IMHO the main sell is that you can do "all of the above" regardless of what domains you are working with without having to switch tools or negotiate different formats, etc. So a systems engineer can model, simulate, and build a test framework for a project for all the bits (including the inside of the hardware and the physical world around it) without changing tools.
