Sigrity PowerDC

Power DC provides conclusive IR drop analysis, allowing you to pinpoint crucial voltage distributions for the complete package and board power delivery system.

Identify areas of excess current density and areas of current starvation to minimize hotspots and intermittent field failures.

Reduce the likelihood of overheating and improve pin effectiveness with the easy detection of high resistance between the VRM and pin.

Prevent IR Drop by identifying the ideal VRM sense line location to detect and compensate for changes in current load. Power DC provides single-step automation for the intelligent selection of the VRM sense line and allows you to increase the VRM nominal output voltage to the maximum safe level of compensation.

Analyze system-level power loss for your entire PDN and identify path and loop resistance issues through the generation of a resistance network matrix based on the terminals specified by the user.

Automatically set-up DC simulations in PowerDC using source/sink definitions captured at the schematic stage of the design process with PowerTree. PowerTree helps users visualize the power portion of schematics, run pre-layout simulation without copper to help select components that meet design criteria, and easily track changes to the PDN design.
