Guardian
DRC/LVS/NET Physical Verification

Guardian provides interactive and batch mode verification of analog, mixed signal and RF IC designs. Integrated with Simucad's schematic capture and layout editor. Guardian efficiently performs design rule checks (DRC) and layout vs. schematic (LVS) comparisons.
