MONROVIA, California – May 30, 2012 – Tanner EDA, the catalyst for innovation for the design, layout and verification of analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits (ICs) and MEMS devices, has announced two new products for DAC 2012 and will be offering a series of demonstrations for analog, mixed-signal and MEMS designers.
The new Tanner Analog FastSPICE solution, an add-on to Tanner EDA’s front end and full flow analog/mixed-signal design suites, brings Berkeley Design Automations Analog FastSPICE platform to Tanner EDA customers, delivering foundry-certified nanometer SPICE accuracy at speeds 5x-10x faster than any other simulator on a single core and an additional 2x-4x performance uptick with multithreading. The HiPer Simulation A/MS solution, which offers T-Spice analog design capture and simulation together with Aldec’s Riviera-PRO™ mixed language digital simulator, allows both analog and digital designers to seamlessly resolve A/MS verification problems from one cohesive, integrated platform.
Live demonstrations and presentations at the Tanner EDA booth will include:
FOR ANALOG DESIGNERS:
HiPer Silicon Product Demo: Full-flow analog design suite - now including Open Access! (30 Mins)
HiPer Simulation AFS Demo: The latest front-end offering, from Tanner EDA and Berkeley Design Automation (30 Mins)
HiPer DevGen: An add-on tool that breaks through the analog design layout bottleneck, automatically generating differential pairs, current mirrors, resistor dividers and MOSFETs (30 Mins)
FOR MIXED SIGNAL DESIGNERS:
HiPer Simulation AMS Demo: Tanner’s latest analog/mixed-signal offering that bridges analog and digital verification by integrating T-SPICE with Aldec’s Riviera-PRO (30 Mins)
HiPer Silicon AMS Demo: A cohesive analog/mixed-signal flow that bridges analog and digital verification and adds synthesis, static timing and place & route (40 Mins)
FOR MEMS DESIGNERS:
L-Edit MEMS Designer Demo: Demonstrating how L-Edit combines with high-performance add-ins that include curve tools, DXF import/export and design rule checking (DRC) (30 Mins)
MEMS 3D Solid Modeler Demo: The latest offering from Tanner EDA & SoftMEMS that creates a 3D view of a MEMS device from a selected layout area and fabrication process description (30 Mins)
CORPORATE STRATEGY & TECHNOLOGY ROADMAPS:
PDKs: An essential element of analog design success (30 Mins)
Tanner EDA will be in Booth # 1126 at DAC 2012 in the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California, from June 4th to 6th. Click here to reserve meeting or demonstration time.
