Overview of GENISSNX® ERC Function
- Operating frequency on the IC has been increasing every year and there are some malfunctions or noise problems rise caused by IC package.
ERC Function function allows you to check if there are electric problems in the routed design.To fix possible problems at the design phase, it enables to improve the quality of IC package.
Problems
IC Characteristic rises Noise Problems
- IC electric characteristics without IC package quality check become worse.
- With IC package trace design, it is not clear if design directions must be kept.
Unclear the point to consider on IC package design
- Designers are unclear what should be considered for IC package design and unable to affect actual design.
Features
Enables quality improvement for IC package electric characteristics
- Detects traces and planes on the IC package made electric characteristics worse.It detects problems from signal and power using signal check (Return Current Path Discontinuity, Differential Signal etc.), and power electric check (SG Via Spacing etc.)
- Enables high speed checking without manual design check.
