Sigrity Adds Parallel/Distributed Computing Feature to PowerSI
Solution
New Capability Results in Significant Time Savings for
Highly Complex Designs
SANTA CLARA, Calif., January
8, 2007 — Sigrity, Inc., the market leader in power
and signal integrity software solutions
for integrated circuits, IC packages and printed circuit
boards, today announced it
has enhanced its PowerSI™ electrical analysis solution
to enable parallel and distributed computing. The move
means that large tasks that formerly required lengthy
processing now can be distributed among several CPUs in
a computer, or among several computers, resulting in
significant time savings that scales virtually linearly
with the number of processors.
Sigrity's PowerSI solution, optimized for and focused on
frequency-domain analysis, is known for its ability to
provide fast, accurate full-wave electrical analysis of
leading-edge integrated circuit (IC) packages and printed
circuit boards (PCBs). It overcomes increasingly challenging
high-speed design issues in power and signal integrity
analysis. Most of the leading electronics companies globally
have adopted PowerSI for advanced electrical analysis,
making it the de facto standard power and signal integrity
analysis solution in the industry.
Pricing and Availability
A regular PowerSI license can support up to
four
CPUs in a single computer
(the host computer) at no additional charge; there is
a nominal charge for additional CPUs in host or non-host
computers. However, there is no charge for accessing up to
four CPUs in a non-host computer where there is another
available PowerSI license. For customers
requesting a license to access up to four CPUs in the
non-host computer with an available PowerSI license, a new
license file will be sent with no charge. The
parallel/distributing computing feature is available now.
