Big
Analog/RF Verification:
Complex-Block Characterization & Full-Circuit
Performance
Simulation
Through extensive real-world examples this paper presents the
state-of-the-art in big analog/RF verification as enabled by Berkeley
Design Automation technology. It is based on working closely with
numerous design teams from top-tier semiconductor suppliers to
world-class startups on production circuits often under tremendous
tapeout pressure. In all cases the examples are real, the accuracy is
designer verified to the SPICE noise floor, and performance comparisons
are based on using equivalent compute hardware.

Efficient
Noise Analysis for Complex Non-Periodic Analog/RF Blocks
This white paper provides an overview of
noise in semiconductors and noise analysis methods. It continues with a
detailed description of transient noise analysis, its application to
non-periodic complex blocks, and its implementation in the Berkeley
Design Automation Analog FastSPICE™ (AFS) circuit simulator.
This
paper concludes with AFS transient noise analysis results for a number
of challenging production circuits.

Precision
Circuit Analysis™ Technology
Addressing a New Class of Analog & RF Verification Problems
Precision Circuit Analysis
technology addresses verification challenges associated with
nanometer-scale GHz CMOS analog and RF circuitry. Combining
innovative applied mathematics and optimized numerical analysis,
Berkeley Design Automation developed this technology from the ground
up,
never compromising accuracy, and proving it versus silicon every step
of the way. The result: true SPICE accuracy, 5x-10x performance, and
vastly superior
convergence versus any alternative. Precision Circuit Analysis tools
require no block-level
tuning and are fully compatible with today’s most popular
SPICE
simulators, RF simulators, and their environments.
