PrimeSim HSPICE: Integrated Circuit Simulation

Analog, RF, mixed-signal and custom digital circuit designs with fast and accurate circuit simulation for test and verification before fabrication.

What is PrimeSim HSPICE?

PrimeSim HSPICE is a leading integrated circuit simulation and analysis tool used for analog, RF, mixed-signal and custom digital circuit designs. It is part of the Synopsys design platform and offers fast, accurate circuit simulation to help engineers test and verify circuit behavior before physical fabrication.

Key features and capabilities of PrimeSim HSPICE include:

• Industry-leading simulation algorithms for transient, AC, DC, and RF analyses
• Broad device model support including MOSFETs, BJTs, diodes, resistors, capacitors, inductors
• Support for leading process design kits (PDKs)
• Advanced analysis capabilities like sensitivity, Monte Carlo, noise, distortion
• Interface to popular EDA tools for simulation setup and data visualization
• Distributed multi-core and multi-machine simulation to handle very large designs
• Reliable convergence for challenging circuits like PLLs, switched capacitors

PrimeSim HSPICE streamlines analog, RF, and mixed-signal circuit simulation workflows, enabling engineers to thoroughly test circuit performance early in the design cycle when changes are less costly. Its accuracy and capacity make it well-suited for virtual prototyping of complex ICs prior to tapeout.
