Overview
The
AFS Circuit Simulator is the industry’s leading nanometer analog, mixed-signal and RF
verification tool proven to deliver
foundry-certified nanometer SPICE accuracy 5x-10x faster
than traditional SPICE single-core on circuits with over
10 million elements. AFS also delivers dditional 2x-4x
performance with multithreading on up to 8 cores. For full-circuit functional verification including verifying connectivity and operating modes,
AFS delivers the industry's fastest near-SPICE-accurate results.
The AFS Circuit Simulator has
been proven on
a wide range of production
circuits
including full 802.11 a/b/g transceivers, sigma-delta ADCs, automatic
gain control circuits with bandgap and bias, high-speed I/Os, memories
and memory interfaces, and multi-GHz PLLs and DLLs.
