Description

Ansys Exalto serves as an advanced post-LVS RLCk extraction software that empowers integrated circuit (IC) designers to effectively address unknown crosstalk between various components within the design hierarchy by extracting lumped-element parasitics and creating precise models for electrical, magnetic, and substrate coupling. This tool seamlessly integrates with a wide range of LVS software and can enhance the performance of any RC extraction tool you prefer. With Ansys Exalto's post-LVS RLCk extraction capabilities, IC designers are equipped to make accurate predictions regarding electromagnetic and substrate coupling effects, allowing for signoff on circuits that may have previously been deemed "too complex to analyze." The models that are extracted can be back-annotated to the schematic or netlist, ensuring compatibility with all circuit simulators. As the prevalence of RF and high-speed circuits continues to rise in contemporary silicon systems, electromagnetic coupling has become a primary factor that necessitates precise modeling to ensure the successful fabrication of silicon. Overall, Ansys Exalto represents a crucial advancement in circuit design, helping engineers navigate the complexities associated with modern electronic systems.

Description

Advance your RF simulation capabilities to effectively design, analyze, and verify radio frequency integrated circuits (RFICs) beyond conventional methods. Gain assurance through the use of steady-state and nonlinear solvers tailored for both design and verification processes. Accelerate the validation of intricate RFICs with wireless standard libraries designed for efficiency. Ensure precise modeling of components on silicon chips to achieve optimal accuracy. Enhance your designs using load-pull analysis and parameter sweeps for better performance outcomes. Conduct RF simulations within the Cadence Virtuoso and Synopsys Custom Compiler environments to streamline your workflow. Employ Monte Carlo simulations and yield analysis to further boost performance metrics. Early in the design phase, evaluate error vector magnitude (EVM) in alignment with the latest communication standards to ensure compliance. Leverage cutting-edge foundry technology right from the start of your project. It is essential to monitor specifications like EVM through RF simulation during the early stages of RFIC design. The simulations account for the effects of layout parasitics, intricate modulated signals, and digital control circuitry. Utilizing Keysight RFPro Circuit allows for comprehensive simulation in both frequency and time domains, enhancing the overall design process and accuracy. This multifaceted approach ensures that your RFICs not only meet but exceed industry standards.
