Interconnect inductance extraction for IC designs

Increasing operating frequencies for analog/RF designs mean interconnect inductance parasitic extraction is now required to ensure accurate circuit performance and high reliability. Automated field solver-based inductance extraction of both self and mutual parasitics enables IC companies to deliver analog/RF chips that provide the intended level of performance and reliability.

The Calibre RealTime Custom interface enables custom/AMS layout designers to access Calibre signoff DRC in the design flow, using full foundry-qualified Calibre rule decks and analysis engines.
Key Features

Fast Accurate Extraction of Frequency-Dependent Effects

With increasing operating frequencies, interconnect lines exhibit inductive effects, with significant impact on chip behavior and performance. Parasitic on-chip inductance extraction is crucial for accurate simulation and timely tape-out of high-frequency RF, mixed signal and custom digital designs.
