Overview
AFS Nano is the industry’s fastest SPICE simulator for block-level IC design. Part of the AFS Platform, AFS Nano delivers foundry-certified nanometer SPICE accuracy, 5x-10x faster for blocks with up to 5K elements. A one-year time-based license costs only $1,900.

Greater than 2x Faster Block-Level Design
AFS Nano enables IC designers to design and rigorously characterize their blocks at least 2x faster and for a fraction of the cost of leading SPICE simulators. AFS Nano verifies blocks with up to 5K elements, delivering foundry-certified nanometer SPICE accurate waveforms 5x-10x faster for even moderately sized blocks (e.g., >1K elements and >1-hr runtime).

Key Features
  • DC (.op and sweep), AC, and transient analyses
  • Network analysis and transfer function
  • Monte Carlo, alter, sweep, and .measure analyses
  • AC noise analysis (.noise)
Target Applications
  • Block-level verification
  • Interactive block characterization  
  • Capacity up to 5K element blocks

Fits Your Existing Flow
AFS Nano easily fits into existing SPICE verification flows. It reads industry-standard SPICE netlists and supports popular device model formats. AFS Nano runs in either  batch or interactive mode using the leading EDA design environment.
