SCNAP5 software - Analogue VLSI Group

Summary

SCNAP5 used in conjunction with CADENCE Verilog VMX provides a powerful mixed-mode simulator operating in the time domain. It will provide detailed analysis of the effects of linear non-idealities in the analogue components.

SCNAP5 currently features:

Enhanced Time Domain Simulator

Periodic and non-periodic sampled - analogue networks
Efficient time domain techniques
Logical control of switches
Linked to separate logic simulator: CADENCE Verilog: using mixed-mode simulation socket
Nonideal effects
gain and bandwidth of opamps
switch resistance
SI integrator macro-models

Used for detailed simulation of delta-sigma converters, pipelined flash convertors and other mixed-mode systems.

Hardware Platform	Operating system release
Sun	SunOS 4.1.3

SCNAP5 can be supplied on floppy disk and comes complete with a suite of examples and a User Guide. The user will need to have FFT routines and a graphics display package available. Additionally, users will require the relevant Cadence licence to interface SCNAP5 with Verilog. Please note that the software is not supported by a maintenance contract.
