Faster Simulations
Faster Simulations
Sonnet is keeping pace with high performance CPU development, and our Release 14 EM solver engines are faster than ever before. In our Desktop Solver engine, we have increased the parallel CPU core utilization from 3 to 6 cores, resulting in nearly 2X faster simulations. Our High Performance Solver has been increased from 12 to 32 CPU cores in parallel, enabling highend computing hardware to deliver ultra-efficient simulations.
In addition to increased CPU core parallelization, our meshing algorithms have also been tuned to yield high solver efficiency. Large-scale IC via arrays and via bar structures are more efficiently meshed for accelerated simulation of deep-node silicon RFIC circuits and interconnects. Our patented conformal meshing technology has also been enhanced for higher efficiency when simulating stacked and thick metal structures.
Conformal Meshing improvements yield more efficient meshing, which leads to faster simulations.
