Analog Rails To Release IC Design Environment August 31, 2008











Analog Rails Simulation Environment


Chandler, AZ (PRWEB) August 13, 2008

Analog Rails will release a IC Design environment on August 31, 2008. Analog Rails(TM) is a complete semi-automatic IC design environment targeting the entire analog circuit design flow. It is the most automated solution in the “custom” IC industry. Along with unified, correct by construction schematic and layout, Analog Rails features automatic layout, which includes an automatic placer, router, parameterized cells, and differential structures. Additionally, Analog Rails also incorporates a complete simulation environment. Layouts are assisted by real-time DRC and LVS aware functionality, which allows Analog Rails the unique approach of porting real parasitics. This enables the user to simulate with real layout values instead of estimations, which is the current industry standard. A free spice simulator is included so that the user can launch as many simulation runs as necessary for the built-in optimizer without requiring third party simulator licenses.

The release of this expert analog design system represents a new methodology based on inputs from leading designers in the industry. By simplifying analog design methodology via the combination of automated and semi-automatic approaches, Analog Rails addresses analog design challenges for next generation designs.

Steven Klass of Standard Microsystems had this to say in an article posted on his blog about Analog Rails: “This tool represents a clear methodology shift… The demise of the block level analog layout engineer. Why? First as I said earlier, the layout automation piece is very intuitive and friendly. Plus the smaller technology geometries that analog design is pushing into (less than 90nm) is forcing simulation earlier (using Cadence) to account for device parasitics (LOD). So the analog engineer is already doing a fair amount of the placement and letting the layout guy clean up the work. But this tool is correct by construction and so the layout is clean from the get-go. So involving a layout person to ‘clean it up’ isn’t necessary.”

Pirooz Hojabri, co-founder and VP of Engineering at Plato Networks, had this to say: “Utilizing the high ft of sub-micron CMOS has opened a new paradigm in circuit design and to reduce the product cycle time, there is a need to understand the parasitics early in development process. Analog Rails has taken a critical step in this direction.”

And Mike Kappes, CEO of IQanalog, said that “what Analog Rails is developing is a tool that will enable circuit designers to extend their deliverable from annotated schematics to finished and polished layout without outside layout or CAD involvement. Furthermore, having a tight coupling of schematics and layout design will result in better design practices with fewer extraction iterations.”

Analog Rails has been natively developed upon the new industry standard database, OpenAccess, which allows customers to seamlessly adopt individual tools or a whole flow. It also allows seamless design exchange between tools and partners supporting OpenAccess. OpenAccess has been widely accepted by leading EDA vendors such as Cadence, Synopsys, Mentor, Magma, and Silicon Canvas.

Free, 24/7 PDK support is included with every Analog Rails license purchase. Pricing, contacts, and specific details about Analog Rails (including online video demos), can be found at the company’s website, http://www.analograils.com.

Kilopass Introduces 90-nanometer Standard CMOS
Embedded Non-volatile Memory Technology for Secure Storage of System Firmware and Chip IDs










(PRWEB) October 21, 2004

XPMÂ?s process scalability, low cost, high density & data security

key to customer acceptance

Santa Clara, CA ARM DevelopersÂ? Conference Â? October 19, 2004 Â? Kilopass Technology, Inc., an emerging supplier of embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) Intellectual Property (IP) based in Santa Clara, California, today announced that its XPM technology is now available for use in ASICs and SoCs using standard logic CMOS 90 nanometer silicon processes in addition to its current products utilizing 0.18, 0.15, and 0.13 micron processes.

XPM, a unique embedded one-time-programmable (OTP) NVM technology, offers the combination of scalability to advanced silicon processes such as 90 nanometer, low standard logic CMOS fabrication cost, storage density from a few bits to up to multiple mega bits and highly secure storage. With its complete range of bit sizes and its wide variety of applications XPM can enhance almost any chip design.

Dr. Jack Peng, CEO, Kilopass Technology, noted, Â?We have shipped our patented XPM technology to over a dozen customers, and are very pleased to announced that we have tested and verified silicon, in 90 nanometers, with 1,000 hours of burn-in, and that our customers expect to move from silicon prototypes to high volume manufacturing in the next few months.Â?

As a replacement for external memory chips XPM technology can be used in high density embedded memory applications for publishing games, movies and other multimedia content, as well as for secure firmware storage in embedded MCU and DSP-based systems. XPM can also be used for secure ID and data storage for smart cards, for embedded ID and parameter storage, for storing encryption keys, for analog trimming and calibration parameter storage, for storing unique configuration codes and for embedded memory repair.

More about XPM Technology

XPMÂ?s patented fuse-programmable technology uses 1.5 transistors per memory cell, is programmable with a low program current by either an external or internal voltage source, and offers a fast read access time of 40nsec ~ 70nsec (for 1Mbit, 0.18 micron process).

Applications requiring more than one-time programming can use a multiple sector approach with a minimal die area penalty. For example sizing up from 1K bits of XPM-based memory to 8K bits offers eight sectors for limited-time re-programmability and it adds a negligible amount of die area.

XPM Memory Technology Reliability & Security

XPM technology is highly secure. Data is permanently retained for the life of most systems (over 20 years), and is protected from reverse engineering, since it is not possible to detect the stored data with a microscope or by voltage contrast testing.

Availability

Licenses for XPM memory technology are available now, and include GDSII layouts as well as simulation and timing models.

About Kilopass

Kilopass Technology, Inc. was founded with the mission of becoming the industry leader in embedded non-volatile memory (NVM) technology. The CompanyÂ?s super-permanent memory technology is manufactured using standard commercial CMOS process, and is used for storage of firmware and security codes.

Helic’s VeloceRF™ is Selected by Fujitsu to Build RFIC Design-flow for Sub-100nm CMOS Processes










Athens, Greece (PRWEB) June 4, 2007

Helic S.A. proudly announces that Fujitsu Limited has adopted VeloceRF™ and Helic’s technology to build a new design-flow for RFICs in its 90nm and 65nm CMOS processes. The parties have agreed to develop world-class tooling and design methodology to support rapid prototyping and volume production of high-frequency ICs applying advanced lithography techniques.

Helic’s EDA tool, VeloceRF™ features a rapid and high-capacity vector-based RLCK modeling engine, the VeloceRaptor™, a powerful matching engine to support layout-vs.-schematic verification of any kind of integrated inductive component and a spiral inductor synthesizer, the Spiral Wizard™. The tool efficiently addresses DFM requirements emerging for RF CMOS at the 90nm process node and below. Features such as conductor track slotting to mitigate metal stress, geometry resizing under current density constraints and the use of dummy fill patterns are programmed in the VeloceRF™ parametric inductor library and are consistently supported by the Spiral Wizard™, the modeling engine and the layout and LVS modules.

The Spiral Wizard™ synthesis engine supports the creation of patterned shields to enhance inductor quality factor (Q) and improve substrate isolation. Generated inductor layouts are fully parametric and DRC-clean by design, easing adoption by foundries and design teams. VeloceRaptor™, the rapid, vector-based RLCK modeling engine is powered by a proprietary broadband skin-effect model, with demonstrated accuracy even above 40 GHz. The engine’s speed is class-leading and outperforms commercial EM simulators and shape-based extraction tools. Built-in netlist reduction keeps netlist sizes and simulation times at reasonable levels, without loss of model precision.

“First-time-right RF silicon has been a dream. We strongly believe the designer-centric methodology, the tools and the PDK adaptation we provide with Helic is the ultimate door opener to the whole new world of RF COT/ASIC,” said Mr. Tetsu Tanizawa, principle director, Technology & Business Foundation, Electronic Devices Business Group of Fujitsu Limited.

“Fujitsu leverages its leadership in sub-100nm CMOS silicon fabrication to foray the RFIC market and we are very proud to be part of the project. Their process engineering and EDA teams have challenged us to set higher standards for our product to address efficiently their needs,” said Dr. Yorgos Koutsoyannopoulos, CEO of Helic.

“Our new approach with Helic enables deeper and direct communication with customers on RF design issues in designer’s language, other than just a COT library support. Grounding, substrate noise, magnetic coupling are just a few among those critical effects that vary the true performance of RF circuits. Dynamic PDK support reflected in shorter design-time is the key for success,” said Dr. Yuu Watanabe, deputy general manager, Technology Development Division, Electronic Devices Business Group of Fujitsu Limited.

Asus Maximus III Review Mother Gene

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

IntroductionBuying a motherboard these days is quite a difficult task because, in terms of performance, there is very little to choose between the top contenders. Brand loyalty is one way, but leaves the feeling that something good can be missed by lack of knowledge of different offers. The industry has had a difficult time and most have been forced into a “arms race” of adding more features to their boards stand out. A recent example is the tendency to place great amounts of copper on board with a performance gain little to show for it, but at a disproportionate cost. Why did they do? Just because people choose motherboards based on viewing data in a quantitative way. We believe that the much larger value for the customer can not be achieved through features (software and hardware) in the package that gives them tangible benefits. ASUS is a great example. Their strategy is to lead through innovation and not follow the herd. Readers will already be familiar with products like the Eee and other home entertainment products, they have developed. The ROG (Republic of Gamers) branded fast gaining popularity with extreme gaming and workshops and seminars overclocking held in many countries. The selection of prizes awarded at these events shows how close ASUS understand the needs and aspirations of their target audience. We were impressed from a time with the game based ASUS motherboards and I think it is now time to examine them with an emphasis on features and not a multitude of benchmarks comparing + 20 boards to make that happen less than 1% on the other. Today, the board in question is the Maximus III Gene, making Intel’s flagship product for 1156 i5 and i7 (8XX series) processors. FeaturesA Council brief summary of the main features include: Deleting save space – please visit www. ASUS. com for more detailsBoard LayoutThe box comes in a pretty package that highlights the ROG logo showing that it is an enthusiastic player and mother. He is really ready to Windows 7 and everything was detected correctly during our 64-bit Windows Setup Pro 7. Installation of additional drivers and utilities that come with the CD is still highly recommended though. The board X-Fi supports EAX 4 . 0 for HD advanced audio and comes with a filter to remove background noise while recording. We tested in both. 5 1 and 7. 1 channel modes without distortion and a good channel separation. There so many features that the front and back of the box are not sufficient and an additional component is used to develop further. It also adds to the gift box “effect and can make a nice gift for the holidays. All these features on a board that is not cluttered and mATX! As SLI / CrossFire capabilities, we can see that it is passively cooled with a radiator big bottom right. There is a conception of power to twelve participants consists of eight CPU phase, two central and two ATVs phase power memory phase. There are 7 SATA-2 ports and a header E-SATA port. The four DDR3 slots operate in dual-channel memory support up to 16 GB DDR3-2133 by the BIOS. The red button allows you to recover without erasing the BIOS if the settings are too extreme during overclocking. Adding an on / off switch allows testers or those not using a classical case. A legacy PCI slot is there for that so old RAID PCI controller, you can not bear to separate. RAID 0 and 1 is supported on SATA-2 ports and will pay up ‘that the SSD is widespread. connectors PS / 2 are the past and look only to the 8-channel audio is fully supported and configurable when the complete audio drivers are installed. The USB port on the side is actually the ROG connector and allows a notebook to monitor and configure the remote PC. In practice, this works well with our Eee PC 901 using the supplied cable. Firewire and e-SATA (there is another e-SATA Firewire connector on the other side of the Committee for cases that have these connectors on them) are included. Adding a clear CMOS button on the rear panel will please overclockers and record the voltage reaches to a jumper with a pair of long nose pliers while holding a flashlight between the teeth and to the manipulation of language…. Included in the box are the SATA cables with metal bars to make them easier to removing and keeping them in place against accidental removal – a long way from that first SATA cables are included with many motherboards today. ROG The cable is just a USB port (male to male) Lead . padding on the rear bumper is a good fit with the edge of the plate is thick and built making it easy to install and remove without bending. The SLI bridge is easy to install and the most notable thing is the Q-Connector for the son of case (hard drive, power switch, rest, etc.) so they can be installed there and all the connector taken as needed for access. This is the kind of time-saving feature which leaves people wondering why nobody thought of before. SetupRemoved Test to save space – Please refer to the html version of the article to detailsOverclockingSocket 1156 processors, like their brothers and sisters are socket 1366 known for their overclocking capabilities so we started with high hopes for our i7-870 on this forum using the many available options in the BIOS. The BIOS is too detailed for us to explore in this review, but we should read this YouTube video here and if your appetite is whetted for more information you can download the manual from ASUS support site. Our first objective was 3. 5 GHz, which was achieved without significant increase in the temperature (the water fountain sealed Corsair H50 processor is truly remarkable and completely silent). All the markers were performed without problems. Incredibly, the system posted and booted into Windows to 4GHz on stock voltage. The execution of Far Cry 2 item caused a deadlock and we even increased the CPU voltage to 1. 35V CPU before completing all the tests without any problem. Even so, 1. 35V is still on the low side compared to some extremes, we have seen with a simple cooling system. We conducted our tests at stock speeds but to allow readers to make comparisons on a fixed basis. ResultsWe test should explain why we selected certain tests and why we have repeated for 1, 2, 3 and 4 cores. People buy motherboards for different uses and if you’re a player who can do with 2 cores or Avid video editor that max 4-core processor that determines you pair with the board. We recommend still not skimp on the selection and purchase of a high-end motherboard, as a fully featured Gene Maximus III (high-end socket by 1156 standards – half the price of a socket Council 1366) provides maximum flexibility as we shall see. Benchmarks show which processor is best suited for particular uses. We compare the ASUS Maximus III Deluxe with ASUS Gene M4A79T. The advantage of DDR3-2000 compared to DDR3 -1600 and dual channel memory can be clearly seen. Synthetic benchmarks eliminate bottlenecks and to show the true potential of nuclei increases. Only users of the AMD platform will be able to replace their current processors with a 6-core “Bulldozer” next year. It is not intended for the 6-core Gulftown “(aka i9) processors that can fit into a socket 1156 motherbaord. similar situation with a call to very linear scale. The number of nuclei has no effect on memory bandwidth (fortunately there is no single core Athlons in the configuration AM3). The results are quite interesting and stabilization after 2 cores for i7-870 but more linear slow the AMD X4. The results are above average for the advice of these chipsets. Far Cry 2 is widely recognized as the game to any system to its knees and we deliberately tried to Higher settings for each resolution and anti aliasing 8x. cadences are perfectly playable at all resolutions (we do not have 30-inch ultra high resolutions). contrasting the FPS Far Cry 2 Tom Clancy’s HAWX, which is a cross between a flight simulator and air combat game and we achieved more than 60 frames per second in all resolutions. horror games are currently popular and Resident Evil 5 has a large calibration feature built in. The Board very well in this test. ConclusionWe’ve deliberately avoided getting bogged down with dozens of benchmarks comparing many motherboards as it is a component where the performance generally varies less than 1 % across the range. readers who want to see these types of benchmarks are pointed in the direction of AnandTech and similar sites. We have already explored in depth and be assured that the Maximus III Gene is in the top 3 in virtually all standard tests available. Instead we focus on the added features and bundled software that add unique value to each motherboard. ROG mothers never disappointed in terms of features and the Maximus III Gene is no exception despite its mATX form factor that puts pressure on available “real estate”. The choice of what appears to be to enable the board to be used for small form factor and easy to carry systems for players to use in LAN parties and gaming conventions Overclocking etc. used in the field of amateur requiring great skill and experience and tenacity with nerves of steel required and the constant threat of destruction of equipment adding the voltage on the hours it took to get a stable overclock. This is not the case, now that ASUS make it easy for everyone (and no longer can we convince women at celebrations in ourselves as PC overclockers ….) with STEPUP PC IROG connect MemPerfect and a host of utilities within Windows makes it easy to get professional results in a fraction of the time and with low risk or zero. When everything is taken into account, we believe that the ASUS Maximus III Gene is the best motherboard socket 1156 is now available and strongly to its target market price.
