RaptorVista Reviews

Ansys RaptorH is an advanced tool for electromagnetic modeling that specializes in simulating power grids, unique components, spiral inductors, and clock trees. With its cutting-edge distributed processing technology, it accurately generates silicon-validated S-parameter and RLCk models, ensuring high fidelity in simulations. Throughout the design phase, RaptorH is capable of assessing both partial and incomplete layouts, giving users the flexibility to select between the adaptable HFSS engine and the silicon-optimized RaptorX engine specifically designed for distinct silicon architectures. The software stands out by extracting electromagnetic models during the pre-LVS stage for a variety of routing and layout configurations, supporting solid or perforated planes, circular geometries, spiral inductors, and MiM/MoM capacitors, while also automatically setting boundary conditions. Its intuitive graphical interface allows for straightforward net selection via point-and-click actions and accommodates exploratory what-if analyses. Additionally, RaptorH is compatible with all major silicon foundries and can handle encrypted technology files, empowering users to perform analyses efficiently with either the HFSS or Raptor engine. This comprehensive software solution not only enhances the design workflow but also fosters collaboration among engineers and designers, ultimately driving innovation in electromagnetic design.
