Teledyne Selects Berkeley Design Automation Analog FastSPICE™ Platform for Imaging Sensor Verification

Platform Delivers Nanometer SPICE Accuracy 5x to 10x Faster for Imaging Products

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--()--Berkeley Design Automation, Inc., provider of the world’s fastest nanometer circuit verification, today announced that Teledyne Scientific & Imaging, LLC, a subsidiary of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE:TDY), has selected the company’s Analog FastSPICE (AFS) Platform for block-level characterization and full-circuit verification of their image sensor designs.

“Teledyne Imaging Sensors designs and produces some of the most advanced focal plane arrays, sensors, and sub-systems covering a broad spectrum of light,” said Jagmohan Bajaj, President, Teledyne Imaging Sensors. “We selected the AFS Platform because it provides nanometer SPICE accuracy 5x to 10x faster than traditional SPICE on a single core and full-spectrum device noise analysis for our image sensor designs.”

The Analog FastSPICE Platform provides the world’s fastest circuit verification for nanometer analog, RF, mixed-signal, and custom digital circuits. Foundry certified to 20nm, the AFS Platform delivers nanometer SPICE accuracy 5x-10x faster on a single core and >2x faster on multicore systems versus any other simulator. For circuit characterization, the AFS Platform includes the industry’s only comprehensive silicon-accurate device noise analysis and delivers near-linear performance scaling with the number of cores. For large circuits, it delivers >10M-element capacity, the fastest near-SPICE-accurate simulation, and the fastest, most accurate mixed-signal simulation. Available licenses include AFS circuit simulation, AFS Transient Noise Analysis, AFS RF Analysis, AFS Co-Simulation, and AFS Nano SPICE.

“We are delighted that Teledyne selected the Analog FastSPICE Platform for the verification of their innovative imaging products,” said Ravi Subramanian, President and CEO of Berkeley Design Automation. “Teledyne’s selection further validates that Berkeley Design Automation is an essential partner to leading edge companies designing a wide variety of imaging sensors applications.”
