Comprehensive Cell, I/O and Memory Characterization
The SiliconSmart? solution is part of the 草榴社区 Custom Design Platform and generates Liberty libraries for use in digital design and implementation flows. The SiliconSmart solution includes a comprehensive array of library characterization and QA capabilities that are tuned to produce PrimeTime signoff-quality libraries with maximum throughput on available compute resources. SiliconSmart innovative technologies utilize embedded gold-reference SPICE engines to provide a characterization speed-up of advanced Liberty models used by PrimeTime static timing analysis (STA) to accurately account for effects seen in ultra-low-voltage FinFET processes that impact timing. This includes PrimeTime parametric on-chip variation (POCV), advanced waveform propagation (AWP), and electromigration (EM) analysis.

Features
PrimeTime Signoff-quality Libraries
Advanced process node standard cell libraries require accurate timing and noise models to ensure confident static timing analysis signoff — especially for mobile IC and IoT applications operating at ultra-low voltages. To meet the accuracy needs for advanced node characterization, SiliconSmart model generation has been tightly calibrated with PrimeTime and HSPICE? models to provide the best correlation and accuracy results.
Platform-level integration of SiliconSmart with HSPICE and PrimeTime ensures signoff-quality libraries
