A deep dive into HDAP LVS/LVL verification

January 29, 2024

EDA companies are developing tools and workflows to support HDAP (High-density advanced packaging) LVS/LVL verification. Though the data for achieving “signoff-level” confidence is a work in progress, EDA companies are providing tools that can adapt to different levels of data availability and enable HDAP designers to execute HDAP LVS/LVL flows that are both productive and beneficial.
