Hyperscaler design and verification with HyperLynx

Hyperscaler computing pushes design requirements to the extreme, including component and routing density, signal speed, power utilization and thermal dissipation. For the systems designer, these large, complex designs operate with extraordinarily small timing and voltage margins, which means that modeling and simulation work has to be highly accurate to ensure that the design will work in production. While accurate modeling of critical structures with full-wave electromagnetic solvers is essential, it’s also critically important that design simulations represent the board as will actually be manufactured, instead of just the way the system designer wants it to be fabricated.

In this webinar, we’ll discuss the process of exploring design options, optimizing critical structures and verifying system-level operating margins for a system using a combination of 56 and 112G optical links. We’ll show how the behavior of all the serial links can be accurately modeled and verified for the design as it will be manufactured, thereby maximizing the chance for first-pass design success.
