Next-Generation Signoff Analysis Tackles Electrical, Physical, and Manufacturing Challenges
At 45nm, it is imperative to use a single signoff engine that provides a uniform source and consistent view of timing, signal integrity, and power all the way through physical implementation to final signoff verification. The fact that the same timing engine is used for both implementation and signoff verification allows design engineers to perform “signoff in the loop”—significantly improving predictability, productivity and performance. The end result is simple: design teams that do not embrace this technology have a high risk of building chips that either don’t meet their desired performance goals or don’t work at all. By comparison, designers and verification engineers that use this next-generation “Signoff for Manufacturability” solution will be able to successfully design and build chips at 45nm and reap huge rewards.
