第一階段 Allegro AMS Simulator
Course Description
The Allegro? AMS Simulator course starts with the basics of entering a design for simulation and builds a solid foundation in the overall use of the software. You run DC Bias simulations, transient analysis simulations, and sweep simulations, allowing you to sweep component values, operating frequencies, or global parameters. You also have the opportunity to simulate several types of analog circuits, transformers, digital circuits, and mixed analog and digital circuits.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course you will be able to:
- Enter a design for simulation
- Run DC bias, DC sweep, and AC sweep analyses
- Edit a stimulus and run a parametric analysis
- Edit models, run a Monte Carlo analysis, create subcircuits, and create parts for simulation from a model or subcircuit definition
- Create linear and non-linear transformers, and perform temperature, worst-case, and noise analysis
- Apply analog behavioral modeling and run digital and mixed analog and digital simulation

第二階段 Allegro Design Entry HDL Front-to-Back Flow
Course Description
In this course, you create board-level schematic designs with Design Entry HDL. You explore the integration between Design Entry HDL and other tools in the design flow, including the Allegro? PCB Editor. You follow the design flow by creating a schematic and taking it all the way through board layout.
Although board layout is introduced as part of the front-to-back flow, this is not a board layout course. Also, schematic or footprint library development is not included in this course. See the Related Courses below.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Set up new projects
- Create a flat, multisheet design
- Check the design
- Use part tables
- Package a design
- Create and customize a bill of materials
- Build a hierarchical design
- Use schematic properties to control part placement
- Use the Constraint Manager to define high-speed routing requirements in Design Entry HDL
- Transfer the design to the PCB Editor
- Place parts manually
- Autoroute with the PCB Router
- Compare the schematic and layout
- Synchronize design differences
- Incorporate engineering changes
- Link projects together in a team-design scenario
- Reuse a hierarchical block and associated layout in another design
