Extensions over existing MCP (PTMF)

• Support for I/F group (netname with-in DIE or grp with-in DIE) – For cases where port-grp1_pkg connects to say port-grp2&3_DIE

• Support for I/F part like IO-cellname, R1:1 (pin 1 of R1), CONN:1 (pin1 of PCB connector)– Needed to connect by names as against x-y locations that work

well for DIE but not as well for others – also important for Analog• Support for Module in connect-type

– Needed for RFmodules, Passives, SMD components…• Support for Extended-nets

– Needed for Signal nets (Example series terminations in signals)

IR-drop of analog DIE in context of passive structures

• Simulating Analog DIE in package schematics with loading from passive structures connected to DIE

• The simulation data is post-processed to obtain IR-drop at power-rails
