As design nodes drop below 45nm, design rules are exploding in number and complexity, making design rule checking (DRC) harder and lengthier. What we have observed across the industry is that the ...
It’s no secret that a successful yield ramp directly impacts integrated circuit (IC) product cost and time-to-market. Tools and techniques that help companies ramp to volume faster, while also ...
As the complexity of IC designs continues to grow, moving critical checks earlier in the design cycle helps designers identify and resolve issues before they escalate, streamlining the overall ...
How often have you struggled to verify static random-access memory (SRAM) blocks in your design? And how often, no matter how much time you spend on them, do they end up causing manufacturing issues?
This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Michael White, Director of Product Marketing, Calibre Physical Verification products, Mentor Graphics In recent years, ...
Analog circuits often use structures like differential pairs and current mirrors, where the matching of device characteristics such as the threshold voltage V t is important. Circuits using these ...
The software, called PatMax, locates features despite changes in image angle, size, rotation, and appearance. Boasting up to 10 times more accuracy than other pattern-matching technologies, the ...
Figure 1: Liposome-based inhibitor of anthrax toxin assembly. Peptide-functionalized liposomes inhibited the intoxication of murine macrophage RAW264.7 cells by a mixture of PA and LF with a ...
