MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.,
May 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --
Highlights:
- Panasonic will use the Synopsys Custom Design Platform for all
analog, mixed-signal and RF integrated circuit designs across a
broad range of process technologies and applications
- Decision to deploy the Synopsys platform followed a rigorous
technical evaluation and the successful migration of legacy design
flows and data
Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS) today announced that
Panasonic Corporation has selected the Synopsys Custom Design
Platform for its total design flow to develop next generation
analog and mixed-signal products after the completion of a rigorous
technical evaluation and successful migration of legacy design
flows and data. Panasonic has already begun design work with the
Synopsys Custom Design Platform; it will be used by all Panasonic
analog, mixed-signal and RF design groups world-wide.
"We selected Synopsys as our EDA partner to help us accelerate
our spatial sensing solution and battery sensing solution for
automotive and industrial market," said Hiroyuki Tsujikawa, Director at Panasonic
Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd.. "Synopsys demonstrated that they
could respond rapidly to our requirements, and we moved our legacy
designs and design flows to Synopsys in just a few months."
Synopsys' Custom Design Platform is based on the Custom Compiler
design and layout environment and includes HSPICE®,
FineSim® SPICE, and CustomSim™ FastSPICE
circuit simulation, Custom WaveView™ waveform display,
StarRC™ parasitic extraction, and IC Validator physical
verification.
Key features of the Custom Design Platform include
reliability-aware verification, Extraction Fusion technology, and
visually assisted layout. Reliability-aware verification ensures
robust analog/mixed-signal (AMS) design with signoff-accurate
transistor-level EM/IR analysis, large-scale Monte Carlo simulation, aging analysis, and
other verification checks. Extraction Fusion technology with StarRC
parasitic extraction reduces design closure time by enabling
accurate parasitic simulation before layout is complete.
Visually-assisted automation is a pioneering approach to reducing
layout effort that is proven to deliver higher productivity.
"Panasonic is one of several full-flow competitive displacements
we've achieved this year from customers seeking better overall
design productivity, industry-leading circuit simulation
performance, and gold-standard extraction and simulation accuracy."
said Aveek Sarkar, vice president,
AMS customer success and product management at Synopsys. "We
welcome Panasonic to our rapidly growing community of full-flow
custom design customers."
