Benchmarks
Gemini's technology has been benchmarked over a wide range of circuit types and complexity and against many different FastMOS and SPICE accurate simulation products.The technology has proven to be:
|
|
 |
10X-30X faster than single-thread SPICE accurate solutions |
 |
2X-10X faster than other multi-threaded SPICE accurate solutions |
 |
2X-5X faster than FastMOS solutions up to several million elements |
 |
Achieved superior convergence than SPICE accurate and FastMOS solutions
|
|
|
Because the results for analog and mixed signal applications vary greatly with circuit characteristics, and to gauge the specific value that Gemini's technology can bring to your designs, Gemini encourages designers to use their own circuits to see first hand the capacity and throughput advantages that the technology delivers.
Evaluating the Technology
Gemini can assist you in this process in two ways:

"I was skeptical at first, but now I can't find a design where Gemini's technology loses to Cadence's Spectre-turboTM. Speed improvements of three times for the same accuracy is common, though I have seen faster times from Gemini depending on the design"
