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.

Description

JTAG Maps™, an intuitive Altium extension, allows engineers to quickly assess test possibilities provided by the JTAG devices in their design. Engineers used to spend hours manually highlighting boundary-scan nets in a design to determine coverage. Boundary scan device model files (BSDLs), which indicate exactly which pins can or cannot be controlled by JTAG/boundary scanning, are crucial to any JTAG/boundary scanner process. JTAG Maps is compatible with BSDL models, and has an 'assume scanner covered' option. Although most users will prefer to use the JTAG Maps Altium coverage report, it is possible import a more detailed picture. The data can be exported to JTAG ProVision for further analysis. A simple message file containing full fault-coverage information can then be read back into JTAG Maps for display/highlighting.
