Highlights:
- Quantus FS solution optimized to support Samsung Foundry’s advanced technologies, delivering tighter parasitic extraction accuracy versus foundry criteria
- Accelerates customer deployment of Quantus FS for library IP creation, using Samsung Foundry’s SF4, SF3E and SF3 process technologies
SAN JOSE, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 25, 2023 — Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced that Samsung Foundry has certified the Cadence® Quantus™ FS solution for its SF4, SF3E and SF3 process technologies. During the Samsung Foundry certification process, the Quantus FS solution successfully demonstrated improved accuracy (tighter mean and standard deviation) versus foundry criteria, ensuring customers can achieve optimal design accuracy and performance. In addition, the certification included verification of capacitance and resistance of BEOL and FEOL, wire via resistance variation and litho bias modeling. Customers can immediately deploy the Quantus FS solution—for library IP characterization, AMS and interface IP, sensors, high-frequency analog and mixed-signal designs, and critical nets in all custom/analog designs—and sign off with confidence.
Included with Cadence’s Quantus Extraction Solution, the Quantus FS solution is a random-walk field solver, utilizing a massively parallel architecture that handles the largest designs, provides faster throughput and linearly scales up to 1000s of CPUs. The built-in 3D capacitance field solver is cloud-ready and production-proven, offering a flexible, scalable modeling platform that enables faster implementation of the Samsung Foundry’s advanced process technologies such as SF4, SF3E and SF3. The Quantus Extraction Solution and the Quantus FS solution are part of Cadence’s broader digital full flow and support the Cadence Intelligent System Design™ strategy, enabling system-on-chip (SoC) design excellence.
