Tanner Designer D A T A S H E E T FEATURES AND BENEFITS: ■■ Track and aggregate all simulation measurements for a project ■■ Incrementally customize as the project progresses ■■ Launch and rerun specified simulations ■■ Group or sort results and launch specific simulations ■■ Generate custom reports for team members via Excel® ■■ Build documentation from reports Tanner Designer helps teams easily track analog verification throughout the entire design cycle. Tanner Designer - The Solution for Analog Verification Management Design teams create and verify blocks that together comprise the system or product that they will bring to market. Over the product development cycle, there can be thousands of simulation runs. Designers need to know if their design blocks have been completely verified and meet specifications, system designers need to verify that the blocks all work together, and project managers need a method to understand the verification status of each block and the entire system. Without a tool to help them, the team can be overwhelmed with analog verification results, to the point that they have little confidence that the blocks have been completely verified. In the world of analog verification, simulation results are typically managed manually, or with very expensive tools that require meticulous setup for each project and that use proprietary methods that are hard for new team members to use. What teams need is a tool that is easy to set up and that can be immediately used in their design flow to track analog simulations and to determine that each block meets specifications. Tanner Designer is specifically designed for analog verification management that is easy to set up and the team can immediately deployed it in the integrated Tanner design flow. Tanner Designer presents a dashboard that every team member can use to monitor the analog verification progress over the entire life cycle of the design and verification process. The team points the tool to T-Spice and Eldo® simulation results to see the verification progress, re-run targeted simulations, and to interact with measurement details. Because Tanner designer utilizes the familiar spreadsheet structure of Microsoft® Excel®, the team has unlimited flexibility to capture specification requirements, formulas to calculate if the block meets specifications, and to customize reports. ■■ A single dashboard shows all team members with passing/failing specifications for all simulations ■■ Integrated into the Tanner design flow ■■ Supports T-Spice and Eldo simulators ■■ No proprietary languages to learn ■■ Minimal setup ■

Getting Started Quickly Getting started with Tanner Designer is as easy as pointing the tool to an existing set of simulation results and viewing them within the dashboard. The tool creates an Excel workbook with tabs that present detailed information about each simulation result. The dashboard lets designers interact with the schematic, view waveforms, and run one or more simulations using T-Spice or Eldo. Project managers can determine the status of the simulation runs in order to track the project. Easily Customize the Solution As the project progresses, team members might want to customize...
