Business Wire
Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced the
results of an extensive evaluation by the Tokyo-based Semiconductor
Technology Academic Research Center (STARC) that showed the
Calibre® xACT 3D extraction product delivers both reference level
accuracy and high performance, enabling very high quality
extraction for large IPs.
“Our benchmark included a wide range of evaluation data ranging
from small cells and routing patterns up to large blocks,” said
Kunihiko Tsuboi, Senior Manager of Mixed Signal Design
Group/Development Department-2 at STARC. “We found that Calibre
xACT 3D closely matched our reference values and, at the same time,
demonstrated performance and capacity sufficient to handle
multi-million transistor SRAMs, not just small cells. We also found
xACT 3D to be an excellent tool for analyzing parasitic
capacitances associated with transistor-level devices.”
“Calibre xACT 3D is a new generation of extraction tool that
overcomes the traditional quandary faced by users—having to choose
between accuracy and performance,” said Michael Buehler-Garcia,
Director of Marketing for Calibre Design Solutions at Mentor
Graphics. “Because Calibre xACT 3D provides field solver accuracy
at speeds that meet customers’ cycle time requirements, designers
of advanced node ICs now have extraction to support better modeling
of circuit performance from the transistor all the way up to full
chip critical nets.”
