PathFinder-SC delivers a novel verification solution that provides superior capacity and performance, easily accommodating large designs in the cloud. This solution presents new opportunities to perform robust ESD analysis for P2P and CD —both earlier in the design process and at end stage ESD validation — for large, complex designs including System-on-Chip and multi-die integrated circuits. This ensures chips are protected from electrical overstress, delivering safe and reliable semiconductor products for applications including AI, high-performance computing (HPC), 5G mobile communications, automotive, memory, and graphic processors (GPUs).

To promote the cloud as a high-capacity, high-speed option for mutual customers, Ansys and TSMC collaborated to complete certification for SeaScape that includes RedHawk-SC, PathFinder-SC, and RedHawk-SC Electrothermal 3D-IC multiphysics analysis platform. Ansys Totem solution for transistor-level and mixed-signal design is also certified, delivering customers the same verification reliability and accuracy when running projects in a distributed cloud environment.
