Ansys PowerArtist

Ansys RaptorH is an electromagnetic modeling software with capacity to model power grids, full custom blocks, spiral inductors, and clock trees. Its high-speed distributed processing delivers accurate, silicon-proven S-parameter and RLCk models. RaptorH can analyze partial and unfinished layouts during the design phase and makes it easy to use either the general purpose HFSS engine or the silicon-optimized RaptorX engine for silicon structures. Ansys RaptorH extracts electromagnetic models at the pre-LVS stage for arbitrary routing and layout, including planes (solid or perforated), round shapes, spiral inductors, and MiM/MoM capacitors - with automatic setting of boundary conditions. The GUI allows point-and-click net selection and what-if analyses. RaptorH is supported by all major silicon foundries and can read encrypted technology files to set up analyses with either the HFSS or the Raptor engine.

Ansys Path FX allows you to calculate timing with variation on a full SoC, without taking any shortcuts. Its unique cell modeling delivers SPICE accuracy timing for any voltage or variation condition with a single library. Path FX has a fully threaded and distributed architecture, with the ability to scale to thousands of CPUs. Ansys Path FX’s path-based timing analysis has the technology to account for all critical contributors to delay and constraints across multiple process, voltage, temperature corners and scenarios. It can also automatically identify and simulate every clock path in your design. Two of the biggest challenges facing successful chip design today are limiting the power consumption through lower supply voltages and managing the complexity of advanced silicon processes at 7nm and below.
