Its the best tool available in market for extraction of resistance, cap and inductance in market for the estimation of interconnect delays and their effect on chip while actual manufacture happen, it supports the variations its an added advante for this tool. It supported by major foundries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Raphael? It has most advance features but i has some bugs while the actual design loads but this bugs can be fixed in the later verions. Where it can be handy for users to estimate the interconnects with out any hurdles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Raphael: Its the best tool available in market for fast and accurate interconnect parasitics modelling in present market which reduces a lot turn around time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Raphael solving and how is that benefiting you? It has priovided the best solution for the interconnect parasitics modelling in industry which saves lots of turn around time, it supports the heavy robust designs so that estimation makes an easy way. Multiple designs can be run parallel to reduce the memory and time while it saves the times for analysation and debugging. Quality of synopsys is outstanding reponse is quick for any kind of hurdle.
