Addressing Circuit Verification and Design Reliability Challenges with Calibre PERC

Overview

View this online seminar and learn how you can use Mentor Graphics' newest Calibre solution, Calibre PERC to address your advanced circuit verification challenges.

Calibre PERC is the industries first programmable electrical rule checker that enables users to check topological circuit design violations and design reliability problems either on schematic or layout.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) and crossing between multiple power domains are two critical areas of concern during verification of circuit performance and reliability, and they involve checking several complex methodology rules. ESD events can have severe harmful and irreversible impacts on devices. Such events usually cause either electrical reliability issues or catastrophic chip failure.

With Calibre PERC and its user-configurable rule entry, designers will be able to discover such design violations in an automated flow saving time and effort.

PERC will enable design managers to mandate in-house design best practices and guidelines achieving higher design functional and compliance yields.
