TSMC 90 nm
Targeting TSMC’s advanced 90 nm process technology, new IP for SRAM, 1T-RAM and Flash memory exceeded the capabilities of traditional verification tools. To account for the increased influence of interconnect on circuit performance, TSMC designers needed the ability to complete full-chip transistor-level post-layout simulations of their nanometer designs. HSIM’s advanced verification technology allowed TSMC designers to complete critical simulations in a fraction of the time required by earlier tools–and rapidly achieve working silicon in chips intended to prove out the advanced 90 nm technology and new memory IP designs. |
