TCAD software solutions are key to developing new semiconductor processes and devices, dramatically reducing costs and time to market.The package includes Victory TCAD,Legacy + Interconnect and Utmost IV. Silvaco DeckBuild 2024 v5.2.29 Linux64 Tested Picture Reduce Development Costs Reduce the time and manufacturing cycles spent to develop semiconductor technologies ITRS roadmaps indicates that TCAD simulation can reduce the costs during development cycles by ~30% Silvaco Tonyplot 2024 v3.10 Linux64 Tested Picture Visualize Internal Physical Processes Using simulation, you can see ‘inside” the device. Experimental measurements tell you what happens, but not why it happens. TCAD can tell you why. For example: Reverse voltage characterization on a power device tells you what happens at high reverse biases. The device experiences reverse breakdown at a specific voltage A TCAD...

EEvision tames electrical system complexity by dynamically isolating and visualizing critical regions. System-rendered displays show up-to-date schematics for system connectivity, wiring harnesses, and component attributes to help development teams, manufacturing teams, and service operations quickly understand real-time critical information in complex electrical systems. Digital twin model systems, generated using original ECAD data, proprietary data, or other standard formats, provide smart system visualization and automatic document creation. Users can extract precise information and display it in an easy-to-understand format with live searches that show electrical system functions and component influence, or drill down to specific component attributes linked to the digital twin model.
