Maximizing Silicon Quality and Productivity with Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions

Overview of Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions

Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions offer a comprehensive, integrated, and silicon-proven design flow tailored for custom/analog, digital, and mixed-signal System-on-Chips (SoCs). This advanced solution is designed to help designers increase silicon quality, boost productivity, speed ramp to volume production, and manage yield effectively.

Key Benefits of Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions

The key benefits of Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions include multi-CPU enabled, advanced, and integrated DPT-aware engines for digital and custom implementation, analysis, and verification. This allows designers to prevent verification and DFM (Design for Manufacturing) issues early in the design process. The solution can handle large, low-power, and mixed-signal designs efficiently, reducing iterations within the design flow and minimizing silicon re-spins.

Offerings and Capabilities

Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node Solutions provide a complete, consistent, and converging flow across digital (Innovus) and custom implementation technologies (Virtuoso), addressing design-for-manufacturing (DFM) and variability effects at earlier stages of the design process. By integrating color-aware DPT flows with model-based DFM, IR drop analysis, timing and power analysis, and verification in a comprehensive prevent-validate-finalize flow, Cadence’s solution offers significant productivity gains over traditional design closure methodologies.

Custom/Analog Advanced Node Design Challenges

For custom/analog designers working with advanced-node processes, the complexities of manufacturing and variability, coupled with increasing power and performance requirements, pose significant challenges. Cadence Virtuoso Advanced-Node platform equips designers with innovative capabilities tailored for these process nodes, empowering them to leverage the full potential of the silicon.

Innovative Features of Virtuoso Advanced-Node Platform
