Software at the Professorship
In order to fulfil current complex research tasks as well as to maintain a practice-oriented education, modern and powerful Software of industry leading Companies like Mentor Graphics, Cadence, Agilent Technologies and others is available:
- Cadence IC Package (Design / Simulation / Verification)
- Mentor Graphics IC Nanometer Design Package (Circuit Design and Simulation, Layout Design, Verification, Fracturing)
- Mentor Graphics Design, Verification and Test Package (System Design, Logic Design, Synthesis and Simulation, Design-for-Test, FPGA Design)
- Layout Design and Processing Software (LOGS etc.)
- Fracturing Software for E-Beam Exposure Unit ZBA21 (MGS)
- Analog, Digital and Mixed-Signal Simulators (ELDO, ACCUSIM, QUICKSIM, SPICE, KOSIM)
- Technology and Device Simulator (ISE TCAD)
- FEM Simulator (ANSYS)
- Data Acquisition and Parameter Extraction (IC-MS, IC-CAP, E5240C I/CV 3.0 Automation Software)
- Software for automatic Measurements using various SMUs (Messumgebung)
- LabVIEW (National Instruments) incl. Development Software (LabWindows)
- Printed Circuit Board Design Systems (Mentor Graphics Board Station, Eagle)
- OriginPro (Data Analysis and Visualization)
- Matlab (Solution of mathematical Problems and Visualization)
- Standard Software for Text, Graphics and Data Processing
By mounting the URZ File System (AFS), a Selection of free and in the context of Campus Licences provided Software also can be used.
Moreover in Addition to the mostly commercial Software above, numerous Layout Processing Tools have been developped in the last Years at the Professorship.
