System Analysis Knowledge Bytes - A new way to tackle System-Level Power Integrity and PDN analysis

The System Analysis Knowledge Bytes blog series explores the capabilities and potential of the System Analysis tools offered by Cadence. In addition to providing insight into the useful features and enhancements in this area, this series aims to broadcast the views of different bloggers and experts, who share their knowledge and experience on all things related to System Analysis.

No one wants to be stuck fixing issues late in the design cycle. Designs are getting too complex and schedules too short to wait until the end for analysis. Operating early in the design cycle allows for “what if” scenario exploration, sets more accurate design constraints, and reduces design iterations.

Cadences next-generation Sigrity solutions are redefining SI and PI analysis with a performance increase of up to 10X while maintaining the trusted accuracy for which Sigrity tools are known.

Cadence releases SIGRITY/SYSANLS 2024.0 to equip designers with redefining Signal and Power Integrity helping deliver accurate SI/PI Analysis with a Comprehensive Solution to meet Compressed Schedules of High-Speed Electronic Products. Sigrity 2024.0 also provides a user experience that streamlines setup time for detailed system-level SI/PI analysis by transitioning seamlessly across different analysis workflow.

Sigrity tools read and write directly to the Allegro PCB and IC package design database for fast and accurate integration of results. It provides a SPICE-based simulator and embedded field solvers for extraction of 2D and 3D structures. It supports transistor-level and behavioral I/O modeling, including power-aware simulation using IBIS models. Parallel bus and serial channel architecture can be explored pre-layout to compare alternatives, or post-layout for a comprehensive analysis of all associated signals.

All-In-One SI & PI Analysis solve your signal and power integrity design challenges across the board, at any stage of the design flow, from crosstalk interference to IR drop.

Embedded Sigrity Engines for Speed & Accuracy Access the unparalleled accuracy and speed of the Sigrity engines for SI & PI analysis and qualification in one easy-to-use platform.

Analyze & Collaborate in Context Run analysis and view results directly overlaid on the PCB design data, eliminating common issues and transcription errors found in disjointed flows.

The Cadence System Analysis solutions offer the following advantages as compared to the other tools available in the market:

  • Scalability and Performance: Virtually unlimited scalability and up to 10X performance gain enabled by massively parallel execution, via the cloud or on premises.
  • Accuracy: Depiction of the physical configuration of system designs using true 3D model extraction and simulation.
  • Risk Mitigation: Multi-domain analysis with minimal risk due to higher analysis coverage because of scalability and integration with the most industry-proven IC, package and PCB design environments

 

The Cadence Online Support portal also leveraged and built a one-stop learning resource for the Sigrity 2024.0 release

This page is carefully designed to provide an integrative and intuitive learning experience to enrich your experience using Sigrity 2024.0. It gives you all the information you need to start with and organized in a way that helps you find information on any topic easily. You can learn about key benefits, hands-on Rapid Adoption Kits (RAKs), an extensive library of videos, product manuals, step-by-step tutorials, and troubleshooting articles.

 

You can effortlessly gain new skills, knowledge, and information at your own pace. This single   resource helps you find a fine balance between your learning, training, and troubleshooting needs. 

 

Whether you are a beginner to the Cadence environment or an expert building on your knowledge database and staying relevant is essential.  The Resources is a repository of information that enables you to explore a wide range of collaterals under the following categories to meet your specific requirements on your Single-Stop Learning Resource for Sigrity accessible at COS
