Calibre xACT 3D provides results at speeds an order of magnitude faster than existing field solvers in singleCPU comparisons. Implementation scales almost linearly with additional CPUs or cores, so multiple CPUs can be added to achieve turn-around times that were previously only available with less accurate rule- based methods. Using Calibre xACT 3D on a multi-CPU platform allows high accuracy with a faster turn- around time, thus shortening design cycle times. To further improve efficiency, the design engineer also can select a subset of nets to be extracted and vary the accuracy of the field solver.
