Hi John,
I saw Caesar's question regarding if any other reliability tool that can
perform signal net EM analysis. In addition to the power net analysis,
the Synopsys RailMill product has the signal net capability for both types
of dynamic and static EM analysis. Dynamic is best for applied for mixed
signal/analog type designs.
Please check out our website for more RailMill product information with
first the transistor level products at:
http://www.synopsys.com/products/etg/etg.html
and second, select the RailMill datasheet or go to
http://www.synopsys.com/products/etg/railmill_ds.html
The signal net EM analysis option is now part of the standard RailMill
package for the newly 2001.06 release.
