At advanced process nodes, designers find it much more difficult to predict device performance accurately. To combat this problem, Magma Design Automation has introduced the FineSim family of circuit simulators: FineSim SPICE and FineSim Pro. Designers can find out how these simulators will help them reach their design goals by logging into Magma’s FineSim webinar at

FineSim SPICE, a native parallel simulation engine, enables high-performance simulation, with full

HyperSPICE—operate concurrently, so designers can pick the best combination of accuracy and speed for each block in their chip.

SPICE accuracy, on precision circuits that could not be simulated until now. The Parallel SPICE feature allows even distribution over multiple CPUs, which minimizes overhead communication among CPUs. FineSim Pro is an innovative trimode, full-chip, transistor-level circuit simulator that permits faster, more accurate simulation on all types of circuits.

The software’s three modes—

SPICE, FastSPICE, and

 

The webinar describes how FineSim SPICE can speed simulation of existing circuits and provide a near linear speed gain across CPUs. It also shows how the software improves speed and capacity over serial SPICE while maintaining SPICE’s accuracy. On the FineSim Pro side, the presentation details how the software speeds simulation by using accurate models at the cell level while providing accurate electrical models for standard cell elements. It also discusses the software’s waveform-level accuracy with full transistor-level simulation.
