Columbus-RLC Extraction for Nanometer SoC Design
Columbus - RLC Extraction for Nanometer SoC Design
The Columbus product suite provides unparalleled RLC parasitic extraction accuracy and versatility to meet the design challenges at 65nm and beyond. Eliminate costly re-spins and tape out your designs with confidence knowing that interconnect parasitics won't compromise performance. Only Columbus's patented extraction engine delivers the precision needed to model on-chip variations in today's advanced process technologies, allowing you to reduce guardbands and achieve silicon success. Columbus offers both gate-level and device-level extraction capabilities, ensuring integration into your power, reliability and signal integrity flows for standard cell, custom digital, mixed signal and analog designs.s

  • Supports a wide variety of analog processes including IBM 5- through 8- series SiGe and CMOS-RF
 COLLATERAL
Statistically Accurate Corners
You can recover 15 - 30% timing margin in your SoC design flow today. All it takes is better interconnect corner modeling when you extract parasitics - same STA, same fab data, same modeling process. Interested in learning how?
