Description

ADS 2015.01 is the next major step in delivering product improvement and new capabilities to solve critical design challenges and improve design productivity through innovation, usability and design flow integration.

The new W2309EP DDR Bus Simulator quickly generates accurate bit-error-rate (BER) contours, masks, and margins between the two, for the DDR memory bus specification published by JEDEC.
- Rigorous DQ and DQS eye calculations to arbitrarily low BER levels
- Built-in driver de-emphasis and receiver continuous-time-linear-equalizer models
- Mix-and-match between built-in, IBIS and circuit models of driver and receiver
- Accounts for crosstalk between signal lines
- Captures asymmetry between rise and fall edges
- Comprehensive margin measurements versus JEDEC DDR4 Rx mask at target BER
- Batch simulation for design space exploration and design of experiments
- Optional parameter sweeps on a compute cluster
