Solido Design Environment: A Solution for Variation-Aware and High Sigma Verification Challenges
In electronic design, staying ahead of the curve and utilizing cutting-edge tools for success is crucial. We’re excited to announce the launch of our comprehensive training course for the Solido™ Design Environment. This AI-powered design environment is used for SPICE-level design and verification, offering a unified nominal and variation analysis solution trusted by thousands of designers in high-performance computing, AI, IoT, automotive, and mobile applications to create competitive products.
Using the Solido™ Design Environment, engineering teams can set up SPICE-level simulations for circuit measurements and regressions, analyze waveforms and statistical results, and handle nominal and variation-aware analysis, all in a single cockpit. Solido™ Design Environment can be used throughout the design process, from initial device sizing to advanced 6+ sigma variation analysis. The solution seamlessly integrates AI technology to perform production-accurate statistical yield analysis, at a fraction of runtime, compared to brute-force methods, and assist the user in identifying optimization paths, to improve circuit power, performance, and area. Adaptive AI powers orders of magnitude speed up for 3 to 6+ sigma at all corners with verified brute-force accuracy. Additive learning uses retained AI models to provide an additional 10x to 100x speed up. It also has assistive circuit optimization and analysis.
