Description

Ansys PathFinder-SC serves as a robust and scalable solution designed to facilitate the planning, verification, and approval of IP and full-chip SoC designs, ensuring their integrity and resilience against electrostatic discharge (ESD). This innovative tool effectively identifies and isolates the underlying sources of design problems that could lead to chip failures due to charged-device model (CDM), human body model (HBM), or various ESD incidents. With its cloud-native architecture capable of harnessing thousands of compute cores, PathFinder-SC significantly accelerates full-chip turnaround times. Endorsed by leading foundries for current density assessments and ESD approval, it stands out as a reliable choice in the industry. The platform's comprehensive data modeling, extraction, and transient simulation engine provides an all-encompassing solution for ESD verification. Utilizing a single-pass model, it seamlessly reads industry-standard design formats, establishes ESD rules, extracts RCs for the power network, and conducts ESD simulations to pinpoint root causes while offering repair and optimization suggestions, all consolidated within one powerful tool. This streamlined process not only enhances efficiency but also reduces the time-to-market for critical design projects.

Description

Ansys Totem-SC stands out as the established and reliable leader in the realm of power noise and reliability validation for both analog and mixed-signal designs, utilizing a cloud-native elastic compute framework. Recognized as the benchmark solution for voltage drop and electromigration multiphysics sign-off at the transistor level, Ansys Totem-SC has proven its effectiveness across numerous tapeouts, leveraging a cloud-based infrastructure to provide the necessary speed and capacity for comprehensive full-chip assessments. Its accuracy in signoff has been validated by all major foundries, supporting advanced finFET technologies down to 3nm. This platform excels in power noise and reliability analysis specifically for analog mixed-signal intellectual property and fully custom designs. Moreover, it generates IP models that facilitate SOC-level power integrity signoff in conjunction with RedHawk-SC and develops compact chip models for power delivery networks applicable at both chip and system levels. The solution is not only industry-proven but also certified by foundries, making it a highly regarded choice for analog and mixed-signal electromigration and IR analysis. With Ansys Totem-SC, designers can confidently ensure the integrity and reliability of their power delivery systems throughout the design process.
