Course Description
This course covers the user-oriented aspects of Assura® Parasitic Extraction (RCX). Assura RCX provides engineers with an analog method of anticipating physical-process-related effects on circuit performance. In this course, you extract designs with Assura RCX and then run analog circuit simulation with the simulator built into the physical design environment.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Use Assura Parasitic Extraction to extract parasitic elements from your physical design.
- Learn methods of simulating netlists with parasitic elements and perform analysis.
