Full-featured mixed-signal simulation
Key Benefits
• Fast, accurate analysis of analog and mixed-signal designs
• PSpice technology at the core for fast and accurate simulations
• Seamless integration with Allegro Design Entry HDL
• TÜV SÜD “Fit for Purpose – TCL1” certified to meet ISO 26262
automotive functional safety requirements
The Cadence® Allegro® PSpice® Simulator provides complete pre- and
post-layout testing for analog and mixed-signal designs with powerful simulation,
debugging, design, and analysis utilities.
The Allegro PSpice Simulator includes Cadence PSpice technology at the core,
providing fast and accurate simulations. This advanced analysis package includes
utilities for sensitivity analysis, goal-based multi-parameter optimization,
component stress and reliability analysis, and Monte Carlo analysis for yield
estimation. The parametric plotter analyzes interdependence among parameters
and converts simulation data into meaningful results. When combined with Allegro
Design Entry HDL, the schematics drawn in Allegro PSpice Simulator can also drive
PCB layout, significantly reducing design time and eliminating redrawing errors. It
includes a large library of known models and behavioral modeling techniques that
make refining the analog/digital interface a straightforward task.
Automotive TCL1 Certified for ISO 26262
The industry’s first PCB design and verification flow to achieve “Fit for Purpose -
Tool Confidence Level 1 (TCL1)” certification enables you to meet stringent ISO
26262 automotive safety requirements. The flow includes everything from design
authoring to simulation to physical realization and verification using the PSpice,
Allegro, and OrCAD product suites. The high-performance design entry, simulation,
and layout editing tools provide an integrated environment for design engineers to
validate the safety specifications against individual circuit specifications for design
confidence. For information on the safety manuals, Tool Confidence Analysis (TCA)
documents, and compliance reports from TÜV SÜD, download the Functional Safety
Documentation Kits through Cadence Online Support.
