The Calibre xCalibrate course will help you describe your process technology information and generate a rule file containing Standard Verification Rule Format (SVRF) capacitance and resistance statements.
Course Details
The xCalibrate rule file generator is a software tool that lets you describe your process technology information and generate a rule file containing Standard Verification Rule Format (SVRF) capacitance and resistance statements. The generated rule files can be included in a larger SVRF rule file for use by the Calibre® xACT™, Calibre® xRC™, and Calibre® xL tools during parasitic extraction. For information on SVRF rules, see the Standard Verification Rule Format (SVRF) Manual. The xCalibrate tool automatically creates the necessary capacitance and resistance rules for accurately extracting parasitic devices. If you are not using rule files supplied by your foundry, you need to use the xCalibrate tool to set up rule files for use by the Calibre xACT, Calibre xRC, or Calibre xL tools.
- Ability to read circuit schematics
- Knowledge of layout verification concepts and tools
