John,
We've recently had Synopsys come and give a presentation on PrimeTime-SI to
do signal integrity analysis. I have to say that I was pretty disappointed
in the presentation as far as the capabilities of the tool in handling
large designs. Run times seem unreasonable as well as their capabilities
of handle designs on the order of 3+ million gates.
I was wondering if any ESNUG readers are currently using Primetime-SI and
would love to hear any feed back that they might have to offer.
