Solving Electrostatic Discharge Design Issues with Calibre® PERC™
White Paper
ABSTRACT
With the progress of technology nodes, circuit designers are now encountering challenging circuit reliability issues that have no simple solutions. Calibre PERC delivers fast, comprehensive and accurate circuit reliability verification that catches and corrects real circuit errors before the design goes to manufacturing. Issues such as such as reduced voltage supply headroom, increased wiring parasitic resistance (Rp) and capacitance (Cp), more restrictive electromigration (EM), latch-up, and electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can be resolved with the Calibre® PERC™ tool and advanced Calibre platform technology, even for the largest and most complex designs.
