Net Common Resistance Extraction is Crucial to Design Reliability

Net Common Resistance Extraction is Crucial to Design Reliability

Accurately extracting and calculating the common resistance of interconnects within analog IC designs is fundamental for evaluating circuit reliability, particularly for noise and voltage drop analysis and ESD protection verification.


Optimizing the Integration of DFM and P&R

Optimizing the Integration of DFM and P&R

Design companies and foundries are constantly modifying their design implementation flow to deliver the best possible solution for their operational needs and the best possible designs for the market.


Improving Productivity With More Efficient LVS Debug

Improving Productivity With More Efficient LVS Debug

Layout versus schematic (LVS) verification is an essential and integral part of integrated circuit (IC) verification in a system-on-chip (SoC) design cycle, but with today’s highly dense and hierarchical layouts, increasing circuit complexity, and intricate foundry rules, running LVS can be a time-consuming and resource-intensive endeavor.


How to Successfully Calibrate an Open-Loop DAC Signal Chain

How to Successfully Calibrate an Open-Loop DAC Signal Chain

The monitoring and testing of a DAC signal chain are critical considerations for open-loop applications. Errors in a DAC signal chain, including DAC intrinsic errors that vary depending on the system, can significantly disrupt the customer design-in experience.
