ANALOG OFFICE®

Key Features

  • APLAC® simulator: Fully integrated with the industry-leading APLAC simulator for time-domain and harmonic balance/multi-rate harmonic balance™ simulations
  • Extract flow with AXIEM™: For very-high-frequency designs, the same layout can be effortlessly extracted to AXIEM software for full-wave 3D planar electromagnetic characterization 
  • Intelligent Net™ 2 (iNet2): Automatic, intelligent interconnect modeling for faster and more accurate design, simulation, extraction, and chip interconnect layout
  • Parasitic extraction: Streamlined integration to OEA International's NET-AN 3D net extraction technology for on-the-fly interconnect extraction of multiple silicon nets
  • EM Socket™: Open EM Socket interface enables integration with the industry's best EM tools for effortless EM simulation of ultra high frequency interconnects
  • DRC/LVS: PowerDRC/LVS technology provides fast, accurate, affordable physical verification solutions integrated into Analog Office software as an add-on module. Analog Office includes interface to other tools such as Mentor's Calibre DRC/LVS and Cadence's Assura DRC.
  • Multiple technology support: Mixed designs/technology support enables seamless IC - package - module and board co-design
  • Foundry support: Validated foundry RF process design kits (PDKs)
  • Interoperability support: Support for open access (OA) process design kits (PDKs) and layout views that enable an interoperable design flow among EDA vendors

Benefits

  • Openness of flow: Delivers a complete, proven design flow, which can be enhanced through integration with best-in-class third party tools
  • Reduce design cycle time: Faster time-to-tapeout and time-to-market as unified data model accelerates RF closure
  • Right the first time: Work correctly the first time given high-frequency accurate models and analysis of high performance analog/RF designs
  • Quick learning curve: Intuitive design environment enables fast adoption and short ramp-up time
  • Easy to install and maintain: Simple Windows installers used for Analog Office and PDKs enables you to install and run the sofware in minutes, not hours
  • Compatibility: Advanced software architecture reduces tool & flow integration effort while AWR's open system philosophy provides seamless integration of best-in-class tool
