Title: Free CAD Software Post by pcardoso73 on Jul 3rd, 2013, 11:42am Dear all, Unfortunately, I am 2000 km away from my University and, from here (Switzerland) I can't have to Cadence. To keep going with some work, I am looking for a piece of software that can do basic schematic design/simulation and, as well, layout. I found the LTSpice and it seems to be quite good. However I believe it lacks noise analysis (especially phase-noise). On top of this I need to do some basic layout, and extract it. My main problem with free software is that I don't know how to integrate a PDK such as the free PDK, into LTSpice and/or Electric VLSI. Do you know good approaches to my problem ? After this I will need, as well, a freeware Verilog/Verilog-A software for designing a BIST block. Thanks a lot. Cheers, Pedro |
