Clarity 3D Solver

Overview

3D Electromagnetics Analysis of PCBs, IC Packages, and SoIC Designs

The Cadence Clarity 3D Solver is a 3D electromagnetic (EM) simulation software tool for designing critical interconnects for PCBs, IC packages, and system on IC (SoIC) designs. The Clarity 3D Solver helps designers tackle the most complex electromagnetic (EM) challenges when designing systems for 5G, automotive, high-performance computing (HPC), and machine learning applications with gold-standard accuracy.

Cadence’s industry-leading distributed multiprocessing technology in the Clarity 3D Solver delivers the virtually unlimited capacity and 10X speed required to efficiently and effectively address larger and more complex structures. It creates highly accurate S-parameter models for use in high-speed signal integrity (SI), power integrity (PI), high-frequency RF/microwave applications, and electromagnetic compliance (EMC) analysis, enabling simulation results that match lab measurement, even at 112Gbps+ data transfer speeds. The Clarity 3D Solver solves true 3D structures by efficiently matching the available computing resources to the size of the design.
