Description

Ansys Path FX provides the capability to perform timing analysis with variations across an entire System on Chip (SoC) without compromising accuracy. With its distinct cell modeling, it achieves SPICE-level timing accuracy for various voltage and variation scenarios using a single library. The architecture of Path FX is fully threaded and distributed, enabling it to scale efficiently to thousands of CPUs. Furthermore, Path FX employs path-based timing analysis technology that effectively considers all significant factors influencing delay and constraints across different process, voltage, and temperature conditions. It also has the functionality to automatically detect and simulate each clock path present in your design. In the current landscape, two major hurdles in chip design include reducing power consumption through lower supply voltages and navigating the complexities associated with advanced silicon processes, particularly at 7nm and beyond. This makes tools like Ansys Path FX indispensable for modern semiconductor development.

Description

Pharos integrates Ansys' exceptional electromagnetic (EM) engine capabilities with a unique high-capacity circuit simulation engine, enabling comprehensive coupling analysis and the identification of potential EM crosstalk aggressors for each victim node. By pinpointing the most vulnerable nets, designers can strategically direct their design choices to mitigate EM crosstalk issues, thereby reducing risks throughout the design process. This tool not only has an extraordinary extraction engine but also features a built-in simulation component that facilitates in-depth EM analysis and categorizes potential crosstalk aggressors affecting each victim net. As a result, designers can concentrate on the nets that pose the highest risk within their designs. Given the increasing complexity of designs and the extensive range of magnetic field interference, it becomes a daunting challenge to identify every susceptible victim/aggressor net pair affected by EM crosstalk. Therefore, the effective use of Pharos can significantly enhance the reliability and efficiency of the design workflow.
