PrimeSim Continuum

Unified Workflow Overview


of Next Generation Continuous technology scaling and shift towards multi-die and heterogenous design
integrations have given rise to hyper-converged designs with a significant increase in
Technologies to scale and system complexity. Advanced technology nodes present increased parasitics
Accelerate Design of and process variations, and large heterogeneous system-in-package designs demand
complex multi-dimensional analysis and improved QoR, time-to-results, and cost-of-
Hyper-converged ICs results. Addressing these complex needs requires a holistic and cohesive approach to
design and verification and disparate tools and flows will prove to be inadequate.

PrimeSim Continuum provides a unified workflow of next-generation simulation technologies


to accelerate the design and signoff of hyper-converged designs. PrimeWave, a newly
architected design verification environment, is integrated with PrimeSim Continuum to deliver
a seamless simulation experience around all PrimeSim Continuum simulation engines.
