Whitepapers

  • Electronic Power and Thermal Management
    This paper presents a comprehensive set of tools and methodologies that can contribute to addressing the challenges of thermal and power management encountered in next-generation unmanned systems
  • Advanced Modeling Technologies for Chip, Package, System Co-analysis and Co-optimization
    The traditional approach to chip-package-system (CPS) co-analysis and co-optimization lacks required accuracy and limits productivity. To meet the increasing demands for system cost down calls for a new methodology that is more comprehensive. This white paper outlines the Chip Power Model (CPM™) technologies and solutions available from Apache Design Solutions to help address the CPS convergence challenge.
  • Technologies for Power, Signal, Thermal, and EMI Sign-off
    This whitepaper discusses the challenges associated with designing smaller, faster, and lower cost products and the necessity for an analysis methodology that addresses the cross domain effect in today's advanced process designs. The paper also provides an overview of Apache's power and noise solutions and how these products enable comprehensive chip-package-system convergence flow across multiple design disciplines.

Webinar Presentations

  • Sentinel™-PSI - IC-Package Power and  Signal Integrity Solution
    This webinar describes how Sentinel-PSI provides the accuracy of a conventional 3D full-wave tool, with the unparalleled capacity to handle an entire package or board design. Sentinel-PSI is seamlessly connected to other Apache products in system-level analysis, and is linked with Sentinel-SSO to perform system-level I/O-SSO simulations..
  • IO Sub-system Timing and Jitter Analysis Considering Power and Signal Noise Impact
    This webinar describes SSO analysis methodology for generating accurate timing and jitter numbers using Sentinel-SSO, a comprehensive framework that provides efficient simulation of an entire IO bank along with the package and PCB. The presentation will discuss IO-SSO simulation that includes IO, package, and board elements, as well as the consideration of both power/ground and signal networks.
  • Chip Power Model: Next Generation Power Modeling Capabilities
    This webinar describes Chip Power Model (CPM), an accurate and compact die model of the IC’s power deliver network, along with examples of how it is used for chip-package-system convergence. The newest functionality of CPM is presented with details on how it can provide greater verification and sign-off coverage, as well as the results of the latest options such as resonance frequency aware CPM and chip-level probing in a chip-package-system simulation.
