| SEMICONDUCTOR MODELING |
 |
| A sizable design effort, with considerable expense, goes into any IC. The foundation of your design is based upon the models being accurate. It’s important to inspect the foundation before starting design because inaccurate models “after the fact” are very costly. Effective Electrons can perform foundry model audits to help your team uncover potential problems and define model patches to get results quickly. |

| PROBLEMS WITH FOUNDRY (SPICE) MODELS
|
 |
| Foundry models, design kits and support data vary widely in quality. What the foundry and circuit designer see as important are frequently two different things.
Here’s an example of the types of problems we found in one Foundry Model Set…
