SANTA CLARA, CA – Sigrity Inc., a provider of power and signal integrity software solutions for integrated circuits, IC packages and printed circuit boards, has released PowerDC PKG and PowerDC PCB. This software is customized for system-level IR drop analysis and is said to help designers budget end-to-end voltage margins for every device on the package and board to ensure designs are operational.
PowerDC complements Sigrity's comprehensive power integrity analysis solutions by allegedly providing efficient and accurate DC analysis of IC packages and boards to show voltage drops at various component locations. It is said to locate hot spots that potentially could cause problems and possible neckdowns that could adversely impact electrical and thermal performance in the routing. "Voltage margins are extremely tight for designs at 90nm and below, making off-chip analysis imperative for achieving operational designs. PowerDC ensures that designers can get accurate system-level IR drop analysis for packages and boards in a very efficient manner," said Jiayuan Fang, president of Sigrity. |
