Course Description
This onboarding course on analog design and simulation is curated for designers new to the Cadence® Virtuoso® environment. The course includes lectures and labs built on the latest Virtuoso release (Virtuoso Studio). You learn to create transistor-level design schematics in the Schematic Editor, set up analyses in the Analog Design Environment (ADE), run simulations using the Spectre® simulator, and view the simulation results. This is a foundational course for advanced simulations and analyses, some training for which is listed in the related courses section below. Examples of some of the features discussed in this class are:
