Fast, Focused Early-Stage Circuit Verification Can Get You To Signoff Faster


Designers everywhere know that with the increasing complexity of integrated circuits (ICs), meeting tapeout schedules has become increasingly difficult. While there are often many reasons for missing tapeouts, one critical component is the significant amount of time needed to run the signoff layout verification cycle, which contributes to overall signoff process duration. Much of this schedule ... » read more

Achieve Dramatic Productivity And Turnaround Time Improvements In Early Design Electrical Rule Checking


Early-stage layout vs. schematic (LVS) and circuit verification typically return large numbers of connectivity errors, which can be a critical bottleneck for both LVS and physical verification flows that require correct connectivity for valid results. The Calibre nmLVS Recon tool targets essential and relevant early-stage circuit verification pain points, such as electrical rule checking (ERC) ... » read more
