Encounter Conformal Equivalence Checker Formal verification technology for fast and accurate bug detection and correctionCadence® Encounter® Conformal® Equivalence Checker (EC) makes it possible to verify and debug multi-million–gate designs without using test vectors. It offers the industry’s only complete equivalence checking solution for verifying SoC designs—from RTL to final LVS netlist (SPICE)—as well as FPGA designs. Encounter Conformal EC enables designers to verify the widest variety of circuits, including complex arithmetic logic, datapaths, memories, and custom logic.Already proven in thousands of tapeouts, Encounter Conformal EC is the industry’s most widely supported independent equivalence checking product. It is production-proven on more physical design closure products, advanced synthesis software, ASIC libraries, and IP cores than any other formal verification technology. Benefits Exhaustively...

Cadence Physical Verification System (PVS) integrates with industry-standard Cadence Virtuoso® custom/mixed-signal and Cadence Encounter® digital design flows. This provides designers with an end-to-end design and signoff solution from a single vendor. PVS is a trusted solution that enables users to achieve advanced node design signoff in a quick total turnaround time. It provides efficient, effective debug tools to reduce debug time and increase productivity. This solution supports advanced process node technology (such as double patterning, 3D-IC, and advanced device extraction), and it extends physical verification technology into design reliability checking and constraint validation. PVS also offers a distributed multi-threading processing capability that greatly accelerates throughput without requiring specialized hardware. Benefits Trusted solution with production-proven accuracy Single-vendor solution for implementation and...

Cadence® Assura® Physical Verification supports both interactive and batch operation modes with a single set of design rules. It uses hierarchical processing and multi-processing for fast, efficient identification and correction of design rule errors. Unique pattern-checking capabilities enable simple rule development and maintenance for hard-to-write rules. Assura Physical Verification incorporates advanced sub-65nm process parameter measurement, nanometer design rules for DFM, and process design rule checks. Assura Physical Verification reduces overall verification time because it incorporates a fast and intuitive debug capability integrated within the Virtuoso® custom design environment. It facilitates schematic-to-layout cross-probing and incorporates technologies that fix, extract, and compare errors. An interactive short locator accelerates recognition and fixing of shorts. Assura Physical Verification also offers plug-and-play integration with transistor-based...

Engineering change orders (ECOs) have a wide variety of implementations that range from adding or removing logic in a design to more subtle changes such as cleaning up routing for signal integrity. All ECOs are focused on delivering products to market as fast as possible with minimal risk to correctness and schedule. ECOs can be a time of high stress, long work hours, and uncertainty. Even if the logic change is implemented in the netlist, there might not be enough spare gates on the mask to implement the change. BenefitsProvides faster turnaround time by minimizing manual intervention and eliminating time-consuming iterationsGenerates early estimates on ECO feasibility by quantifying designer intentImplements complex ECOs that are typically not attempted manuallyEnables front-end designers...

Integrated with Cadence® Allegro® PCB and IC Package design, editing, and routing technologies, Allegro Sigrity™ SI provides advanced SI analysis both pre- and post-layout. Operating early in the design cycle allows for “what if” scenario exploration, sets more accurate design constraints, and reduces design iterations. Allegro Sigrity SI reads and writes directly to the Allegro PCB and IC Package design database for fast and accurate integration of results. It provides a SPICE-based simulator and embedded field solvers for extraction of 2D and 3D structures. It supports transistor-level and behavioral I/O modeling, including power-aware IBIS 5.0 model generation. Parallel bus and serial channel architecture can be explored pre-layout to compare alternatives, or post-layout for a comprehensive analysis of all associated signals....

imulating Crystal Oscillators got a lot easier in MMSIM13.1…We have made enhancments to both Harmonic Balance and Transient analyses. In Part 1, I’ll cover Improvements to the Harmonic Balance use model. With a streamlined Choosing Analyses form you can now focus on the simulation results, rather than the setup of the analysis. In Part 2, I\’ll cover Improvements to transient analysis. We’ve added a new feature to transient analysis that allows you to reach steady state more quickly should you decide to simulate your crystal oscillator using transient analysis. Important: Be sure to use IC615 ISR14 or later to see the new MMSIM13.1 features in the GUI. Part 1: MMSIM 13.1 SpectreRF Harmonic Balance simulations are more streamlined. In MMSIM...
