Dolphin SMASH 5.11.4

 

Due to the endless need for performance improvements, designers of logic, analog and mixed circuitry must master multi-level techniques, even more with sub-micron technology. Improvements of designers’ productivity provided by SMASH 5.11 are focused on facilitating the practice of Virtual Fabs: Virtual Test and Diagnostic up to Yield Insurance.

Key enhancements:
• Graphic User Interface for Trading-off Accuracy and Rapidity (GUITAR)
• Logic power consumption estimation (SCROOGE)
• Extended compliance with Verilog-AMS and VHDL-AMS standards
• Unleashed SPICE and VHDL-AMS mixity allowing any hierarchical instantiations
• Enhanced API including script capabilities using Tcl
• Automatically documented SPICE device models
• Increased logic simulation speed (up to a factor of 2)
