Run time improvements using Calibre nmDRC Recon

As IC designs become increasingly complex, traditional Design Rule Checking (DRC) methods are struggling to keep up. The old “construct by correction” approach, initially developed for simpler, custom layouts, is creating substantial runtime and resource bottlenecks. Traditional DRC relies on an iterative, sequential… Read More
