Easy design migration to Silvaco Custom Design flow via OpenAccess
This webinar will provide an overview for how circuit designers can use Silvaco’s schematic capture tool, Gateway and layout editor, Expert in an OpenAccess environment.
OpenAccess has become the choice and standard when dealing with interoperability between different vendors and Silvaco has added this functionality to its custom design tools to enable design portability.
In this webinar we will focus on showing how to incorporate an iPDK based design into the Silvaco flow and its potential uses, including callback scripting and instantiation.

- Key challenges
- Inter-operability
- Differences between PDK types
