Virtuoso Passive Component Designer
Cadence® Virtuoso® Passive Component Designer comprises a complete solution for the design, verification and modeling of spiral inductors, transformers and transmission lines. Tightly integrated with the Virtuoso custom design platform, this advanced technology puts passive component design into the hands of analog and RF designers developing fast and complex wireless SoCs and RFICs.
Key Benefits
Flexible synthesis of on-demand inductors, transformers and transmission lines helps automate the generation of optimum devices for specific applications and process technologies
Silicon-accurate verification of passive components using a built-in 3D planar full wave electromagnetic solver
Generation of accurate broadband lumped-element models ready for simulation using Virtuoso Spectre® Circuit Simulator L and XL
Optimum placement of inductors using a fast and accurate coupling analysis capability resulting in smaller silicon area and higher yield
Reducing the design turn-around-time by eliminating the need for dedicated passive component characterization runs
