Industry’s First Generative AI Technology to Automatically Identify and Address EM-IR Violations

Learn how you can conquer your power integrity challenges with Voltus InsightAI, which predicts IR drop issues early in the design process, discovers their root causes, and then resolves those violations efficiently.

Greater Engineering Efficiency and Key Productivity-Enhancing Features

  • Fast incremental analysis:
    Builds machine learning models of the power grid and performs extremely fast incremental IR analysis
  • IR drop diagnostics:
    Uses generative AI to identify root cause of IR drop problems and quickly identify aggressors, victims, resistance bottlenecks, and power density hotspots
  • Multi-method fixing:
    Draws on generative AI algorithms to perform timing and DRC-aware fixes of IR drop using multiple methods like placement, grid reinforcement, routing, and engineering change orders (ECOs)
  • Seamless integration:
    Integrates with other Cadence solutions, including Cadence Innovus Implementation System, Cadence Tempus Timing Solution, Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution, and Cadence Pegasus Verification System for complete IR design closure from implementation to signoff​ that is timing- and DRC-aware
