Have you heard that starting SPB 23.1, Allegro Package Designer Plus (APD+) will be renamed as Allegro X Advanced Package Designer (Allegro X APD)? 

Allegro X APD offers multiple new features and enhancements on topics like Via Structures, Wirebond, Etchback, Text Wizards, 3D Canvas, and more. 

This post presents the new 3DX Canvas introduced in SPB 23.1. This can be invoked from Allegro X APD (from the menu item View > 3DX Canvas). 

Some of the key benefits of the new canvas: 

• This canvas addresses the scale and complexity in large modern package designs. It provides highly efficient visual representation and implementation of packages. 
  
• The new architecture enables high-performance 3D incremental updates by utilizing GPU for fast rendering. 
  
  
• Real-time 3D incremental updates are supported, which means that the 3D view is in sync with all changes to the database. 
  
  
• The new canvas provides 3D visualization support for packaging objects such as wire bonds, ball, die bump/pillar geometries, die stacks, etch back, and plating bar. 
  
  
• This release also introduces the interactive measurement tool for a 3D view of packages. Once you open 3DX Canvas, press the Alt key and you can select the objects you want to measure. 
  
• 3DX Canvas provides new 3D DRC Bond Wire Clearances with Real 3D DRC Checks. True 3D DRC in Constraint Manager has been introduced. If you open Constraint Manager, there will be a new worksheet added. Following DRC checks are supported: 

  Wire to Wire 
  Wire to Finger

Verisium Debug, the Cadence unified debug platform, offers a variety of debugging capabilities, including RTL debug, UVM testbench debug, UPF debug, and DMS debug. From IP to SoC level debug, the user can take the benefits of the rich debugging features to reduce the time for debug.

Not only the common and advanced debug features, Verisium Debug also provides Python-based interface API, which enables capabilities allowing users to customize functions with Verisium Debug Python API to access from design, waveform databases and add functions to Verisium Debug’s GUI for visualization purposes. With Verisium Debug’s Python API, users can turn repetitive works into automatic programs or reduce efforts to create in-house utilities with well-established infrastructure from Verisium Debug.

Here is an example of how the user uses Python API to create a customized function. Users can write a Python program to extract signals in a specific design scope and report the values of the extracted signals. From Fig 1., you can understand the procedure of the traversal steps.

1. Import Python library in Verisium Debug package.
2. Setup the database for traversal.
3. Search the scope with the hierarchy information in the design DB.
4. Query the signal list and the values of the signals.
5. Print out the results.

Fig 1. Procedure of Verisium Debug Python Program

The result from the Verisium Debug Python App can be used for post-process design checking or fed into other utilities in the design flow.

The concept is very straightforward. With Verisium Debug and the Python API environment enabled, you can easily query any information that is stored in the databases of Verisium Debug. The result can be outputted in text format, or you can also use the API to display the results back to Verisium Debug’s GUI.

The Verisium Debug Python API is an important capability and resource for Verisium Debug users. To make Verisium Debug Python API easier to access, from Verisium Debug 24.10 release, Verisium Debug introduced the new Verisium Debug Python App Store.

Fig 2. Verisium Debug App Store

The Python App Store includes ready-to-use Python App examples with the availabilities of original source code documents, which help the user to understand how to start writing an app that fits their use case.

Fig 3. Example apps in Verisium Debug App Store

The Verisium Debug Python App Store can also be used by a team as an app management system. App creators can share the developed apps across teams within their companies. The in-house created apps will become easy to manage, and engineers can easily access the apps from the central location, which makes it possible for users to see the updated available Verisium Debug Apps from the Verisium Debug App Store.

In the dental hygiene discipline, evidence-based practice serves as a cornerstone for delivering high quality patient care and moving professional standards forward. As practitioners delve deeper into research to inform clinical decision making, the integration of robust survey methodologies becomes imperative. However, the complexities of survey design, implementation, and analysis pose notable challenges, particularly in ensuring the reliability and validity of research outcomes. This short report provides brief practical guidance about the basics of survey research methodologies for dental hygiene professionals.

ABSTRACTTraining health workers is one of the biggest challenges and cost drivers when introducing a new contraceptive method or service delivery innovation. PATH developed a digital training curriculum for family planning providers who are learning to offer subcutaneous DMPA (DMPA-SC), including through self-injection, as an option among a range of contraceptive methods. The DMPA-SC eLearning course for health workers includes 10 lessons with an emphasis on informed choice counseling and training clients to self-inject. In partnership with Ministries of Health in Senegal and Uganda, the course was rolled out in select areas in 2019–2020, including during the COVID-19 pandemic when physical distancing requirements restricted in-person training. We conducted evaluations in both countries to assess the practical application of this digital training approach for contraceptive introduction. The evaluation consisted of a post-training survey, an observational assessment conducted during post-training supportive supervision, and an estimation of training costs.In both countries, a majority (88.6% in Uganda and 64.3% in Senegal) scored above 80% on a DMPA-SC knowledge test following the training. In Senegal, where there was a comparison group of providers trained in person, those providers scored similar on the post-test to eLearners. Providers in both groups and in both countries felt more prepared to administer DMPA-SC or offer self-injection to clients after receiving a supervision visit (93%–98% of eLearners felt very prepared after supervision as compared to 45%–72% prior). The evaluation results suggest that digital approaches offer a number of benefits, can be cost-effective, and are most optimal when blended with in-person training and/or supportive supervision.

Twitch have introduced a new "Politics and Sensitive Social Issues" label for streams that "focus" on topics like "elections, civic integrity, and war or military conflict". As with the streaming giant's existing labels for M-rated material, sexual themes or depictions of gambling, the idea is that viewers can filter out such streams in advance by altering their settings.

Advertisers, similarly, can "make better choices about the content they want to advertise next to" - in other words, pull their ads from a whole swathe of material if they don't want to be associated with anything controversial. Twitch's hope is that "the labels will allow advertisers to have more context to inform which types of streams they show their ads alongside, which we expect to increase brands’ confidence in running ads on Twitch, and could bring new advertisers to our service."
