Parallel Statistical SPICE Simulator - NanoSpice™
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NanoSpice™ is a new generation parallel statistical SPICE simulation and verification engine, which runs 10 to over 100
times faster than a traditional SPICE simulator at 100% SPICE accuracy, and can simulate large scale circuits with over ten
millions of circuit elements. NanoSpice™ is fully compatible with mainstream SPICE simulators, and can handle different
types of analog, digital and mixed-signal circuits. With its leading edge simulation technologies, NanoSpice™ provides
designers the best verification solution with high accuracy, fast performance and large capacity, which enables designers
to run more reliable simulations within a greatly shortened time-to-market.
