NNIN Computation (NNIN/C) project at Michigan has installed IntelliSuite V8.6 on one of the CAD Room (#1336) computers.
IntelliSuite unifies various engineering and manufacturing tasks into a single living design environment. IntelliSuite offers you a number of tools to close the loop between top-down and bottom-up modeling. Synthesis and placement tools such as MEMS-Synth and Hexpresso can automatically transform the schematic into a ready-to-use layout or a meshed structure for FEA-BEA analysis. In addition, graphics tools allow you to visualize the results of schematic level analysis in 3D, the natural context for MEMS design.
Similarly, System Model Extraction (SME) tools based upon energy storage and dissipation in multiple physical domains can accurately capture the dynamics of the MEMS device. The Reduced Order Models from SME can capture all of the device and packaging effects. The derived ROMs can be directly used in schematic-level co-simulation with the electronics or alternately exported into popular Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) for use in simulators such as PSPICE, HSPICE, Cadence Virtuoso, Mathworks Simulink, and MentorGraphicsSystemVision.
By presenting a uniform framework for simultaneous top-down and bottom-up methodologies and toolsets to easily switch between methodologies, IntelliSuite allows information capture from the entire design team.
