ERC, PERC, Soft Checks
ERC (Electrical Rule Check), PERC (Physical Rule Check), and SOFT CHÉCKS (Soft Checks) are all key verification stages conducted during the design process to assure the accuracy and dependability of integrated circuits in the field of VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration). ERC (Electrical Rule Check) :- ERC is a verification process that focuses on the electrical aspects of the design. It entails inspecting the circuit's connectivity and electrical qualities to ensure that it complies with specified design regulations and recommendations. ERC detects possible problems such as short circuits, open circuits, floating nodes, inappropriate power connections, high capacitance, and insufficient spacing between circuit elements. Designers can detect potential electrical flaws that could lead to circuit breakdowns or performance deterioration by running an ERC. PERC (Physical Rule Check) :- PERC is a verification process that focuses mostly on physical design rules. It ensures that the circu...
