Primarius NanoSpice? Simulator Certified for Samsung Foundry 8nm Process Technology
2021-12-30
Primarius Technologies today announced that its NanoSpice? high-performance parallel SPICE simulator has been certified for Samsung Foundry’s 8nm technology. NanoSpice? helps Samsung Foundry’s customers to verify their designs with better convergence and accuracy confidence on default mode.
Samsung’s 8nm process technology is engineered to improve overall yield, reduce power consumption, and improve performance over previous process nodes, which requires fast and accurate circuit simulation and verification tools to support advanced IC designs. Verified under Samsung Foundry's EDA certification program in this process technology, NanoSpice? provides good simulation convergence and accuracy, which helps Samsung Foundry’s customers to design with confidence and shorten design cycle. NanoSpice? is also the simulation engine of BSIMProPlus?, the leading SPICE modeling tool provided by Primarius, that ensured the accuracy and quality of SPICE models for the 8nm process.
As a new generation high-capacity, high-performance parallel SPICE simulator, NanoSpice? is designed for the most challenging simulation jobs, such as large post-layout analog circuit simulations that require high capacity, high speed, and high accuracy all at the same time. Its superior parallelization technologies enable efficient circuit simulation with up to 50 million circuit elements.
“Samsung and Primarius have achieved joint success with NanoSpice? certification at Samsung Foundry's 8nm process. We are happy that our mutual customers can now utilize NanoSpice? in our 8nm process providing ultimate PPA and cost-effectiveness without EUV” said Sangyun Kim, Vice President of Foundry Design Technology Team at Samsung Electronics.
“Samsung has been a long-time customer of our EDA products and we continue to improve our technology to meet the simulation challenges presented by cutting edge technologies.” remarks Dr. Zhihong Liu, Primarius’ Chairman and CEO. “We welcome the opportunity to be part of the ecosystem supporting this important process node, NanoSpice? fits the performance and accuracy requirements of the toughest design verification needs with its full range of simulation capacities from small blocks to full chip designs, and can help achieve goals that would be difficult to reach without our circuit simulation solutions.
