Software training,tutorials,download,torrentIC-CAP (Integrated Circuit Characterization and Analysis Program) is a device modeling program that provides powerful characterization and analysis capabilities for all of today’s semiconductor modeling processes.
IC-CAP offers device engineers and circuit designers state-of-the-art modeling software that performs numerous modeling needs including instrument control, data acquisition, graphical analysis, simulation, optimization, and statistical analysis.
All of these processes are combined into a flexible and intuitive software environment for efficient and accurate extraction of active device and circuit model parameters. IC-CAP also provides the power to build model libraries for Agilent EEsof EDA and other simulators.
Add-on 3 includes the following extra content:
BSIM3, BSIM4 and PSP Modeling Packages Enhancements
All the MOS Extraction Packages feature a new data architecture that makes it easier to import measured data generated by other measurement software solutions into IC-CAP for model extraction. Previous limitations about data have been removed and users can now associate customized sets of measurements to different devices. Adaptive gate voltage measurements based on threshold voltage are now supported. In addition, new functionalities were added to the extraction modules to make the flow more efficient, easier to use and more customizable.
IC-CAP Platform Enhancements
New features include a faster link to Synopsys’ HSPICE on Solaris and LINUX platforms and – thanks to a new IC-CAP input type called LSYNC – simulation of MOS devices with different parameters such as L and W in a single setup are now extremely efficient.
A new UI tool called Model Organizer lets users conveniently re-organize the IC-CAP model tree structure: setups, transforms, plots, etc.
Several new PEL functions have been added and a convenient example directory called “New_Features” includes example model files designed to provide quick start guides and examples on how to use the new features.
IMPORTANT NOTE. Add-on 3 will only support HSPICE versions 2006.09 and higher. Therefore, if you are using an earlier version of HSPICE you should not install Add-On 3.
