Reliability Analysis for Power IC Designs

Accurate operating-state simulation is critical yet challenging for power IC design. Traditional RC extraction methods are often inadequate for analyzing large, irregularly-shaped power MOSFETs used in modern power ICs. While these devices may pass DRC and LVS verification, their actual performance and reliability can be difficult to predict. Obtaining accurate power and current analysis typically requires extensive extraction and simulation time, reducing engineering productivity and slowing design iterations. 

Empyrean Polas™ is a specialized power device analysis solution that enables designers to sign off their designs with confidence and ensure product quality.  Polas incorporates advanced technologies, include a field solver for handling complex polygon shapes and delivering higher extraction accuracy than conventional polygon-based methods, as well as long-channel decomposition technology for precise current-flow path modeling.  This highly integrated solution combines LVS, RC extraction, simulation, result viewing and analysis in a unified environment.
