Circuit Simulation and Design-for-Yield (DFY) Solutions
ProPlus' innovative DFY solutions incorporate a new generation parallel statistical SPICE engine, which delivers
higher accuracy and superior performance as compared to traditional commercial solutions, and utilize ProPlus'
leading-edge modeling technologies to abstract accurate process information for reliable DFY designs. The fast
statistical engine, powered by hardware accelerations and equipped with advanced sampling methods,
improves statistical simulation performance by 10-200X over the traditional Monte Carlo. The yield analysis tool
developed based on IBM-licensed technologies can further boost the performance by several orders of magnitude
for circuits with large amount of repetitive cells, such as memory. The highly efficient and reliable engine
enables designers to perform early yield prediction, evaluate the impact of process variations, and optimize
designs targeting to the optimum yield and performance trade-off.
