Faraday Technology Corporation has adopted the Mentor Graphics Eldo simulation tool as its internal Spice simulator for cell library and IP characterization.

Faraday Technology Corporation has adopted the Mentor Graphics Eldo simulation tool as its internal Spice simulator for cell library and IP characterisation Eldo is used in lieu of other Spice tools for improving the convergence rate from 60 to 100% and reducing the characterisation time

"IP characterisation needs a verification tool that provides a high level of accuracy, efficiency, and ability to handle complex designs and characterisation methodologies", said Kun-Cheng Wu, Director of Design Development at Faraday Technology.

"We have been very impressed by the powerful performance and results of Eldo for our designs".

"We are extremely pleased to be working closely with Faraday, the leading IP provider in Taiwan".

"Faraday's adoption of Eldo for simulating IP characterisation demonstrates the versatility and performance of Eldo over a broad range of designs", said Jue-Hsien Chern, Vice President and General Manager, Deep Submicron Division, Mentor Graphics.

"Eldo is the cornerstone of Mentor Graphics' ADMS scaleable analogue/mixed-signal verification platform".

"We look forward to having ample co-operation with Faraday".

Eldo is the simulator of choice for IC silicon vendors and fabless design centres.

Designers worldwide use Eldo on designs ranging from the lowest complexity of a single cell to systems consisting of several hundred thousand transistors.

The Eldo analogue IC and system simulator speed the design and verification of complex analogue/mixed-signal circuits.
