Cadence  Incisive  Formal Verifier(IFV) allows design teams to start RTL block verification months earlier than when using traditional simulation-based techniques. Its formal, assertion-based approach and exhaustive analysis capabilities ensure verification quality by pinpointing the source of bugs and detecting the corner-case errors that other methods often miss. Incisive Formal Verifier integrates easily into established design and assertion-based verification flows through its support of industry-standard languages. Features/Benefits Speeds time to block design closure with early error detection, analysis, and debug Reduces risk of re-spin by finding bugs that other verification approaches miss Eases chip-level verification by delivering higher block-level verification quality Leverages the same assertions as Incisive simulation, acceleration, and emulation technologies Supports all industry-standard assertion formats, including SystemVerilog Assertions (SVA),...

# Algorithms including LMS, normalized LMS, leaky LMS, fast block LMS, sign LMS, RLS, and QR-RLS# Filtered-X LMS and normalized filtered-X LMS algorithm for active noise/vibration control# Examples including adaptive noise/echo cancellation, adaptive system identification, and LPC# Simulation and LabVIEW FPGA code generation for fixed-point LMS adaptive filter# Support for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7 and LabVIEW Real-Time The NI LabVIEW Adaptive Filter Toolkit provides tools for designing, analyzing, and simulating adaptive filters, including both floating- and fixed-point. You can use these tools to create adaptive filters with various algorithms, such as least-mean-square (LMS) and recursive-least-square (RLS), as well as their variants. You can apply the adaptive filters you create to different applications, such as adaptive noise cancellation, adaptive echo cancellation, and system...

Well-maintained and consistent libraries are the keys to efficient design work in Expedition PCB®. The \”Library Manager™ for DxDesigner® to Expedition® PCB Flow\” course will give you the skills necessary to create, protect, add to and change the different data types in your Central Library. The lecture modules discuss the Central Library philosophy as well as how to use the Library Manager tools and how to best interface library objects into your design process. Hands-on lab exercises reinforce the lecture topics as you create a small library of symbols, parts, and cells from scratch under the guidance of our industry expert instructors.You will learn how to * Start a new Central Library and copy elements between libraries * Create partitions...

Agilent RF Design Environment (RFDE) provides access to the ADS circuit simulators directly from the Cadence Analog Design Environment (ADE). Note: RFDE is being replaced by Agilent\’s GoldenGate RFIC Design Software. RFDE 2009 is the last supported release. Agilent\’s GoldenGate is the leading RFIC Simulator platform delivering high capacity and unique analysis for full chip verification and design for yield. Developed for the specific needs of RFIC/Wireless designers, GoldenGate is fully integrated into the Cadence Analog Design Environment (ADE). ADS circuit simulators will continue to be accessible from ADE through the ADS Dynamic Link capability.Product:Agilent RF Design Environment (RFDE) 2008 Update2 Linux Lanaguage:english Platform:Winxp/Win7 Size:572MB

Process and Device Simulation Tools Technology Computer-Aided Design (TCAD) refers to the use of computer simulations to develop and optimize semiconductor processing technologies and devices. Synopsys TCAD offers a comprehensive suite of products that includes industry leading process and device simulation tools, as well as a powerful GUI-driven simulation environment for managing simulation tasks and analyzing simulation results. The TCAD process and device simulation tools support a broad range of applications such as CMOS, power, memory, image sensors, solar cells, and analog/RF devices. In addition, Synopsys TCAD provides tools for interconnect modeling and extraction, providing critical parasitic information for optimizing chip performance.product:Synopsys Tcad Taurus Medici 2009.06 Linux64 Lanaguage:english Platform:Winxp/Win7 Size:89MB

Installing the SoftwareThe TCAD tools use the Synopsys Installer tool, which allows you to use agraphical user interface (GUI) or a text script. For information aboutdownloading Synopsys Installer and the TCAD tools, see Installing SynopsysTools, available at http://www.synopsys.com/install.To install the TCAD tools by EST or from the CD, follow the proceduresdescribed in Installing Synopsys Tools.Installing Synopsys Tools shows an example Synopsys media installation scriptfor the synthesis tools. The TCAD software is installed in a similar manner.The TCAD tools are stand-alone products and cannot be installed over otherexisting Synopsys products. You must create a new directory for each TCADproduct (such as Sentaurus, Taurus, Raphael NXT).Sentaurus can be installed in the same Sentaurus directory (STROOT) used forearlier Sentaurus releases (this is recommended)....
