Description
Introducing IC-CAP 2016.01
IC-CAP 2016.01 updates the CMOS model extraction packages to newer model versions (HiSIM_HV 2.2.0, HiSIM2 2.8.0, PSP 103.3.0, and BSIMSOI 4.5.0). The new release provides considerable speed-up in simulations using PSPICE. HF noise and multiport simulations with HSPICE are now supported. Various instrument drivers are improved: binary search is enabled for the Keysight B1500A and 4070/80 Parametric Systems; the B1500A/B1505A drivers are now up to 3X faster. IC-CAP 2016.01 fully supports the new DynaFET system, a complete solution to enable the extraction of the Keysight DynaFET model for III-V GaN and GaAs FET devices. This includes the Arbitrary Load Control (ALC) software for the large-signal waveform acquisition and a dedicated nonlinear model generation based on artificial neural network technology.
