Post-LVS RLCk extraction software solution that enables IC design engineers to accurately predict electromagnetic coupling effects during the signoff phase
About Ansys Exalto
Ansys Exalto is a post-LVS RLCk extraction software solution that enables IC designers to accurately capture unknown crosstalk among different blocks in the design hierarchy by extracting lumped-element parasitics and generating an accurate model for electrical, magnetic and substrate coupling. Exalto interfaces with most LVS tools and can complement the RC extraction tool of your choice. Ansys Exalto post-LVS RLCk extraction lets IC designers accurately predict electromagnetic and substrate coupling effects for signoff on circuits that were previously "too big to analyze.” The extracted models are back-annotated to the schematic or netlist, and support all circuit simulators. The proliferation of RF and high-speed circuits in modern silicon systems has raised electromagnetic coupling to a first order effect that must be accurately modeled to reliably achieve silicon success.

Ansys Pharos
Pharos combines Ansys' unparalleled EM engine capacity with a proprietary high-capacity circuit simulation engine to perform coupling analysis and provide ranking of potential EM crosstalk aggressors per victim node. By highlighting the most susceptible nets, designers can focus their design decisions to manage EM crosstalk on these nets and de-risk the design process. Pharos combines unparalleled extraction engine capacity with a built-in simulation engine to perform EM analysis and provide ranking of potential EM crosstalk aggressors per victim net. This allows designers to focus on the most critical nets in the design. Increasing design complexity, along with the broad scope of magnetic field interference, makes identifying all EM crosstalk susceptible victim/aggressor net pairs a very challenging, if not impossible, task.

Sigrity X PowerSI
To help you tackle increasingly challenging issues related to simultaneous switching noise, signal coupling, and target voltage levels, Cadence® Sigrity X PowerSI® technology provides fast, accurate, and detailed electrical analysis of full IC packages or PCBs. It is cloud ready and can be used pre-layout to develop power- and signal-integrity guidelines, as well as post-layout to verify performance and improve a design without needing a prototype. Using Sigrity X PowerSI electromagnetic (EM) field solver technology, you can readily perform a broad range of studies to identify trace and via coupling issues, power/ground fluctuations caused by simultaneously switching outputs, and design regions that are under or over voltage targets. PowerSI technology also lets you perform extraction of frequency-dependent network parameter models and lets you visualize complex spatial relationships.
