FloMCAD™ Bridge FloMCAD Bridge enables parts and assemblies to be transferred easily and rapidly to FloTHERM for thermal analysis from mechanical computer-aided design (MCAD) software such as Creo Parametric, SolidWorks and CATIA. FloMCAD Bridge intelligently filters the geometrical data for a particular part or assembly and creates a simplified “thermal equivalent” for analysis purposes. This is critical because production-quality MCAD solid models contain a vast amount of thermally insignificant geometric detail such as fillets, small holes, chamfers and screw treads. These details provide no accuracy benefit if included but can drastically slow down the solution process. The ability to defeature a part to match its thermal importance prior to translation offers a massive improvement in the efficiency of the model...

FloTHERM uses advanced CFD techniques to predict airflow, temperature, and heat transfer in components, boards, and complete systems, including racks and data centers. It\’s also the industry\’s best solution for integration with MCAD and EDA software. FloTHERM is the undisputed world leader for electronics thermal analysis, with a 98 percent user recommendation rating. It supports more users, application examples, libraries and published technical papers than any competing product.FloTHERM lets engineers focus on design, delivering the most accurate results possible within engineering timescales. Its SmartParts and structured-Cartesian method offers the fastest solution time per grid cell. The FloTHERM “localized-grid” technique supports integrally matched, nested, non-conformal grid interfaces between different parts of the solution domain.product:MentorGraphics_FloTHERM_v10.1_Update1 Lanaguage:english Platform:Win/Linux Size:2CD

DESIGNrev DFM Interactive MDP nmDRC nmLVS Parasitic-Extraction PERC RET/OPC RVE SVRFencrypt TVF WORKbench xACT-3D xRC Calibre 2014.1_17.12Mentor\’s IC verification and sign-off includes not only traditional rule-based physical verification and parasitic extraction, but also new capabilities and automated technologies that help improve yield by enhancing the design itself. Calibre® is the overwhelming market share leader and the industry standard for IC physical verification, due to the outstanding performance, accuracy and reliability of Calibre products. Over the last two years, Calibre nmDRC™ has reduced average DRC runtime by a factor of five, while Calibre\’s innovative Hyperscaling and MTFlex™ technologies have cut memory requirements in half. Calibre nmDRC also reduced overall cycle time with incremental DRC, which allows designers to make DRC runs...

Calibre RealTime delivers Calibre signoff DRC inside custom and analog/mixed-signal design flows. With its ability to perform all checks in Calibre DRC, including recommended rules, pattern matching, equation-based DRC, and double patterning, Calibre RealTime lets custom and analog designers correct and adjust their designs during the layout process using the same foundry-qualified rule decks used by batch Calibre. Imagine-no more time-consuming layout-verification-simulation loops, and no more unwelcome, costly manufacturing issues after tapeout. By allowing designers to correct and optimize \”on the fly\” during the design process, Calibre RealTime lets them make needed layout changes while the design is still highly flexible, and without slowing down the design process. In short, Calibre RealTime lets the designers drive the design process, not...
