“Unified database for all verification tools”
The goal of the Assura physical verification team is to provide easy migration paths from Diva, Dracula, & Vampire
- Drop in replacement for Diva; same rules, same use model
- Dracula compatibility; rules translation, comparable functionality
- One tool, one rule deck for both interactive and batch verification with a single hierarchical database
Assura verification will have database access to DFII and next-generation databases
Assura RCX will provide high accuracy (within 10% of Quickcap) full-chip, device level extraction
- Parasitic inductance extraction will be featured in the Assura 3.0 release
