Cadence’s Solution for High-Speed Design Agenda What is High-Speed Design? Ideal High-Speed Design Process Introduction to SPECCTRAQuest Power Integrity SPECCTRAQuest Demonstration The Day of “High-Speed” Has Come Welcome Networking! Agenda What is High-Speed Design? Ideal High-Speed Design Process SPECCTRAQuest Demonstration Introduction to SPECCTRAQuest Power Integrity What is “High-Speed” ? Over 50 MHzis “High-Speed” Question: Which is a “High-Speed” Problem? Answer: They BOTH Are !! Definition of High-Speed A net can be considered ‘High-Speed’ when you have to do something other than simply connect it. High-Speed Design Involves 2 Things Nets that are understood, and must be constrained Nets that must be analyzed to be understood,  and then constrained Nets that are understood, and must be constrained Nets that must be analyzed to be understood,  and then constrained Most Tools Force You to Choose GreatSimulator! But for High-Speed You Need BOTH All in ONE integrated interactive environment ! SPECCTRAQuest: Integrated Constraint Analysis SPECCTRAQuest helps you manage the process of High-Speed PCB development through both Simulation Analysis Constraint-Driven Layout tasks A Complete Solution! Expanding Existing Process Agenda What is High-Speed Design? Ideal High-Speed Design Process SPECCTRAQuest Demonstration Introduction to SPECCTRAQuest Power Integrity Ideal High-Speed Design Flow Development Process Flow Need Flexible Device Modeling Language (DML) Today’s models come in many styles and formats Cadence DML can model all formats AND advanced behaviors(for example, Merced / Itanium) Ideal High-Speed Design Flow Development Process Flow Pre-Route Solution Space Analysis Exhaustive “pre-layout” analysis of manufacturing and design variances Used to define topologies, routing rules and termination strategies Crosstalk and data pattern dependencies may be taken into consideration Swept-parameter analysis is used extensively to
