Today’s PCBs are too complicated for visual inspection. Cadence®
Sigrity solutions provide a comprehensive and unified environment for
accurately assessing SI/PI/EMC issues across your board.

I

mport multiple PCB formats combined with the workflows and wizards
available in Sigrity makes it easy to get started.

 

With model creation and
management, complete electrical analysis, and automatic compliance
reporting, you can easily determine optimal design configurations,
validate performance and signoff on your cirtical interconnects well
before prototype.

Features

  • Utilizes the same trusted Sigrity signal and power integrity engines and workflows found in popular advanced tools
  • Generate detailed reports that can be shared with layout teams to correct layout problems causing SI and PI problems
  • Compatible with Altium, Pads, Expedition, Cadstar, CR8000, Cadence layout tools as well as layout from other EDA vendors

To help you get started with Cadence Sigrity signal and power integrity technology, the Sigrity Starter Kit provides access to popular and easy-to-use workflows that are available in advanced tools including Sigrity PowerSI and Celsius PowerDC.

The robust layout workbench environment enables you to easily read PCB and IC Package layout files from Cadence and other popular layout tools and quickly screen designs for signal and power integrity problems.

The same detailed report data generated by the advanced tools are available in the Starter Kit. Once you are familiar with the Starter Kit workflows, it is easy to add on additional technology to perform more advanced analyses, such as thermal-aware power integrity, and power-aware signal integrity.

Solving for SI & PI Across the Board with the Sigrity Unified Workbench

With the complexity of designs increasing and time to market decreasing, ensuring your design is electrically correct before moving to the prototype stage is critical in reaching your goals. More than ever SI & PI issues are a commonplace concern that must be addressed for on-time product delivery. Often these issues are interrelated with one affecting the other creating a challenge to ensure you are addressing the root cause of issues in an optimal fashion. This session will show common issue and analysis that identify them as well as highlight how the tools can help you identify the ideal corrective action to solve problems at their root. Learn direct from our analysis experts how the Sigirty Layout Workbench provides a unified wizard driven SI/PI workflow to meet your electrical analysis needs.

What You Will Learn

  • An overview of the easy to use Sigrity unified workbench for fast and efficient SI and PI analysis
  • Benefits of the Analysis Model Manager, including multi-physics model management and more.
  • A preview of workflows such as DC Voltage Drop workflow, Loop Inductance, and more with guided corrective action
  • How to identify Power Integrity issues early in the design with unique PowerTree technology
  • How to perform system level screening for impedance, coupling crosstalk, and more
