Packaging SIMPLIS Models for Distribution

Date

Previously Held on August 19th, 2021

This one hour webinar will cover some of the SIMPLIS Advanced Training course material, specifically Section 4.4: Protecting Your IP - Model Encryption. The bulk of the webinar will focus on steps necessary to create self-contained, standalone schematics with encrypted IC models suitable for distribution to end users.

Agenda

  • Introduction
  • Advantages of distributing flattened, encrypted schematics
  • Requirements for encryption
  • Example:
    • Converting a .sxcmp into a flattened ASCII subcircuit model
    • Modifying the top-level schematic to use a plain-text subcircuit model
    • Modifying the top-level schematic to use an encrypted subcircuit model
  • Additional discussion topics:
    • Creating an library of encrypted models
    • Caveats, errors and things to be aware of
    • Testing encrypted schematics
