Verification and Sign-off

Integrating physical verification and sign-off into the implementation flow shortens turnaround time, improves quality of results

With the interdependencies of nanometer effects and growing design complexity, fast, accurate, high-capacity analysis and verification must be integrated into the implementation flow. Magma’s analysis and verification products work in conjunction with the Talus IC implementation platform to automatically analyze and fix sources of timing, power and variation problems, design rule violations and more.

Quartz^TM RC is a 3D full-chip parasitic extractor that provides a correct-by-construction flow with the accuracy of QuickCap®.
Quartz Time provides sign-off verification for timing and noise. It includes concurrent multi-mode, multi-corner and on-chip variation analysis, ECSM support, multi-voltage and IR-drop-induced delay analysis.
Quartz SSTA supplements traditional corner-based sign-off methods with powerful and accurate statistical static timing analysis (SSTA) that identifies cells and nets on both clock and data paths that are sensitive to variations.
QuickCap is the gold-standard 3D capacitance extractor for integrated circuits.
QuickCap NX is the next-generation 3D parasitic extractor for circuit analysis. QuickCap NX includes advanced process modeling, technology model encryption, a parallel execution mode, reference-level SPICE netlist generation and reduction, and a new 3D graphics viewer.
Quartz DRC and Quartz LVS are the industry’s first fully scalable physical verification solutions. Leveraging a unique architecture and advanced modeling capabilities, these products allow affordable massively distributed processing of DRC and LVS comparison.
Talus® qDRC enables sign-off-quality design rule checking within the implementation environment. It allows visibility into reference-level IP views with all GDSII layers, making debugging easy. The incremental mode handles engineering change orders (ECOs) in seconds, operating on only those QuickCap NX portions of the design that changed.
