Thermo Scientific NEXS Software goes far beyond a CAD viewer and stage driver by facilitating fault isolation, failure analysis, sample preparation and circuit edit. NEXS Software enables diverse workflows by providing CAD connectivity with Thermo Scientific analytical equipment.
NEXS Software directly reads/displays the mask data and drives the system stage accurately to fault or edit locations.
- Reads/displays GDS2 and OASIS mask data
- Creates cache database for faster re-load, rendering and tracing (GDS only)
- Connects to most Thermo Scientific tools used for EFA, PFA and Circuit Edit space
- Supports overlaying CAD on microscope image
- Auto-syncs position/magnification between NEXS and Circuit Edit system for a more seamless user experience
- Annotates layout, navigates by text location point, and receives marked hotspot locations
- Reads popular box, text and net trace formats (.vl, .dl, .hl)
- Traces/highlights nets and cells
- Reads software diagnostic callouts and scan chains from various formats (.vl, .sigps.txt, query.txt)
