Micram

High performance design needs high performance models. Adequate, application specific modeling considers all parasitics and effects on the chip as well as of the assembly with external components and the board with load which are suspect to degrade the intended device performance.

Likewise high performance designs, any design with special or unique properties suffers from the lack of appropriate models at design time since modeling often relates to the specialties of the design. Therefore, a fast method for model derivation and validation as well as model parameter extraction must exist in order to support the design promptly on demand.

As a major benefit of Micram's whole service provider concept, all modeling tasks are in-house services without delaying interfaces in between and can be performed simultaneously to the requirements of the related ASIC design:

Model development is a Design Tool service located in and interacting with the requirements of Design&Engineering.

Test structures, fixtures and interfaces for measurements are designed and produced as a Rapid!Prototyping service (cf. Interfacing page).

Model parameter extraction, model validation as well as investigations on effects supposed to be modeled, is performed under Test&Measurement activities. Modeling service is offered in conjunction with any Micram turnkey ASIC development as well as a separate complementary customer service.
