RedHawk and Totem provide power, noise and reliability signoff for system-on-chip and mixed-signal designs at advanced technology nodes. RedHawk also addresses electromigration by delivering current direction-aware, metal topology-aware and temperature-aware checks as well as expanded capabilities to support TSMC's 20 nm electromigration rules. Totem provides full-chip, layout-based power and noise analysis for analog and mixed-signal designs.
In addition, ANSYS technologies interface with TSMC's 3D-IC flow to deliver accurate thermal profiles through iterative analysis of power maps and boundary conditions.
'Apache delivers innovative solutions that address power, noise and reliability challenges for the most advanced process nodes and emerging design technologies,' said Andrew Yang, president of Apache, a subsidiary of ANSYS. 'Our collaboration with TSMC enables us to provide optimized tools and methodologies for advanced-technology designers.'
'With ANSYS and Apache 20 nm certification at TSMC, companies will be able to produce more robust designs and deliver next-generation products to the marketplace,' said Suk Lee, TSMC senior director, design infrastructure marketing division.
The ANSYS/Apache portfolio of product offerings will be showcased at DAC exhibit booth #1813.
Apache Design, an ANSYS subsidiary, enables simulation-driven IC and electronic systems design by providing advanced chip-level power analysis, optimization, and sign-off solutions. Apache's integrated products and methodologies advance low-power innovation and address chip-package-system power and noise challenges. Using Apache's engineering simulation software early in the design and throughout the process enables the world's top semiconductor companies to gain a competitive advantage delivering more power-efficient, high-performance, and noise immune chips. Apache's products help lower power consumption, increase operating performance, mitigate design risks, reduce system cost, and shorten time-to-market for a broad range of end-markets and applications.
