Key Features

Fast signoff-quality design-stage layout optimization

The Calibre DesignEnhancer platform offers P&R and custom/analog design teams a fast, integrated environment for implementing design modifications that reduce IR drop and EM and prepare layouts for physical verification, with Calibre confidence in the results.

Via optimization

Automated via insertion

The Calibre DesignEnhancer via layout modification (Via) use model automatically adds correct-by-construction DRC-clean vias to moderate the impact of via resistance on manufacturing robustness and reliability, as well as reduce EM and IR drop effects.
