Overview

To help you get started with Cadence Sigrity signal and power integrity technology, the Sigrity Starter Kit provides access to popular and easy-to-use workflows that are available in advanced tools including Sigrity PowerSI and Celsius PowerDC.

The robust layout workbench environment enables you to easily read PCB and IC Package layout files from Cadence and other popular layout tools and quickly screen designs for signal and power integrity problems.
