Single simulator covers all IC
technologies
End-to-end simulation and verification software for custom IC uses a common database of netlists and models to simulate analogue, RF, memory and mixed-signal designs.
Cadence Design Systems has unveiled Cadence Virtuoso Multi-Mode Simulation (release MMSIM 6.2), the electronic design industry's first end-to-end simulation and verification solution for custom IC that uses a common, fully integrated database of netlists and models to simulate analogue, RF, memory, and mixed-signal designs and design blocks This breakthrough allows designers to switch from one simulation engine to another without compatibility issues or interpretation impacts, so consistency, accuracy, and design coverage are improved, while cycle time and risk are reduced
