EDA Framework Interface Enhancements
RF engineers using the Cadence Virtuoso or Agilent ADS platforms will notice increased automation for Sonnet's seamless integration products. With enhancements such as Co-calibrated Port Autogrouping and Stackup Manager access from within the interfaces, Sonnet allows for truly streamlined 3D planar EM model extraction without breaking the flow. Sonnet's EDA Interfaces to Cadence Virtuoso and Agilent ADS now include:
- Automatic population of Sonnet Technology Layers
from Cadence and Agilent Drawing Layers - A Stackup Viewer for intuitive technology stackup
display inside the EDA framework - Direct access to the Sonnet DC continuity checker
from within the EDA framework - Co-calibrated Port Auto-grouping is automatic
for internal ports - Save/Load States moved to Virtuoso Cell View
- Option for union of via polygons after via
simplification and merges to further reduce meshing
requirements of micro via arrays - Via array merging added for substrate contact vias without
bottom planar metal
Sonnet's Stack Viewer provides a visual check that you stackup is correct.
Sonnet's Technology Layers provide a mapping from your drawing layers to the physical locations and properties.
