Electromagnetic and Circuit RLCK Extraction and Simulation for Advanced Silicon, Interposers and Package Designs

Electromagnetic and Circuit RLCK Extraction and Simulation for Advanced Silicon, Interposers and Package Designs
by Tom Dillinger on 03-16-2021 at 6:00 am

spiral complex

For years, there have been rather distinct domains for the extraction of interconnect models from physical design data.

Chip designers commonly focused on RC parasitics for circuit/path delay calculations and dynamic I*R voltage drop analysis.  The annotation of extracted parasitics to a netlist model required the layout… Read More


Need Electromagnetic Simulations for ICs?

Need Electromagnetic Simulations for ICs?
by Daniel Nenni on 02-11-2021 at 6:00 am

RaptorH in Virtuoso

Electromagnetic (EM) simulations have been performed on die metal structures since the 1990s. Originally, the analysis was restricted to a single device (e.g., a spiral inductor). The number of on-die devices simulated simultaneously grew with the increasing capabilities of the computers performing the computations. This… Read More


Webinar: Electrothermal Signoff for 2.5D and 3D IC Systems

Webinar: Electrothermal Signoff for 2.5D and 3D IC Systems
by Mike Gianfagna on 02-08-2021 at 6:00 am

Webinar Electrothermal Signoff for 2.5D and 3D IC Systems

The move from single-chip design to system-in-package design has created many challenges. The rise of 2.5D and 3D technology has set the stage for this. Beyond the modeling requirements and the need for ecosystem collaboration to get those models, there is a significant challenge in understanding the data. The only way to truly… Read More


Best Practices are Much Better with Ansys Cloud and HFSS

Best Practices are Much Better with Ansys Cloud and HFSS
by Daniel Nenni on 02-04-2021 at 6:00 am

Ansys PAM4 PKG

Compute environments have advanced significantly over the past several years. Microprocessors have gotten faster by including more cores, available RAM has increased significantly, and the cloud has made massive distributed computing more easily and cheaply available.

HFSS has evolved to take advantage of these new capabilities,… Read More

ansys HFSS electric field distribution in coax to waveguide adapter

In the 155 years since James Clerk Maxwell introduced the world to Maxwell’s Equations in the “Dynamic Theory of the Electromagnetic Field” there have been some amazing breakthroughs and avenues of insight. As a young electrical engineering student, we are introduced to the set of equations describing electromagnetic waves,… Read More


HFSS Performance for “Almost Free”

HFSS Performance for “Almost Free”
by Jim DeLap on 12-11-2020 at 10:00 am

HFSS PCB

Everyday, engineers are running simulations to deliver the next generation of products to make our lives better. Everyday, they wait for those simulations to finish, wishing that they could get answers instantaneously. While waiting for those simulations or checking on the status of their runs at night, they might indulge in… Read More


The History and Significance of Power Optimization, According to Jim Hogan

The History and Significance of Power Optimization, According to Jim Hogan
by Mike Gianfagna on 11-13-2020 at 10:00 am

Jim Hogan

Power seems to be on everyone’s mind these days. Hyperscale data centers worry about operating costs unless power is optimized. The AI accelerators in the Edge can’t be effective without optimized power. Advanced 2.5 and 3D packages simply can’t remove the heat unless power is optimized.  And then there’s all those gadgets we … Read More

The Gold Standard for Electromagnetic Analysis
by Daniel Nenni on 11-04-2020 at 6:00 am

Example of a multi level board analyzed by HFSS

Ansys HFSS has been the world’s trusted gold standard for  electromagnetic analysis for many years. As chip designs get bigger and more complex many users report that they’re extremely happy with the gold standard accuracy of HFSS but wish it would run faster. Fortunately Ansys has introduced many capabilities to HFSS over the… Read More
