Delivering advanced SPICE-accurate simulation


Key Benefits 

   •   Provides 10X-100X the single-thread performance (10X over the
       Spectre baseline) with out-of-box SPICE accuracy and convergence

   •   Enables high-precision simulation for large, post-layout analog designs
       and subsystems that have a high ratio of passive to active devices—
       without compromising accuracy

   •   Delivers scalable performance with a multi-core architecture, allowing
       higher levels of analog design integration and verification

   •   Uses foundry-certified device models (common across all simulation
       engines in the Virtuoso Multi-Mode Simulation solution) to ensure silicon-
       accurate analog designs
  

Scalable performance and capacity—at full Spectre accuracy—for complex analog, RF,
and mixed-signal blocks and subsystems with tens of thousands of devices.  

The Cadence® Spectre® Accelerated Parallel Simulator performs advanced SPICE-accurate
simulation for faster convergence on design goals while offering scalable performance and
capacity. It is tightly integrated with the Cadence Virtuoso® custom design platform, allowing
engineers to capture and pass design intent in the same environment, and it provides all the
transistor-level analysis capabilities of the Spectre Circuit Simulator.

The proprietary full-matrix solving technology in the Spectre Accelerated Parallel Simulator
delivers unparalleled scalability and multi-threading capability using modern multi-core compute
platforms. These features and more ensure precise simulation without sacrificing accuracy of
results.
