Upcoming Event

DAC 2024

Meet us in San Francisco and find out why XMODEL, GLISTER, and MODELZEN make the best way to verify your next chips!

Model of the Month

Modeling an adaptive decision-feedback equalizer for wireline receivers

Here is an example of adding DFE and its sign-sign LMS adaptation loop to the wireline transceiver model presented in the XMODEL tutorial.

Tip of the Month

Computing the power spectral density (PSD) of an xreal-type signal

Using XWAVE, you can easily plot the PSD of a random signal and calculate its power within a certain frequency range.

Primitive of the Month

iprobe

You can measure the current flowing through a branch by inserting this primitive into it.
