Mentor Acquires Magma: Not Anytime SoonGabe on EDA - Gabe MorettiDec. 23, 2010 |
I have been thinking about Daniel Nenni's blog of November 21st, yes I know it has taken a while for all the neurons to fire, and I must say there are a few points I do not agree with. The title of the blog is "Mentor Acquires Magma?". To get to that story though you first have to read about how Magma is "the only EDA company" not preparing for the EDA360 message about the integration of software and semiconductor design. Unfortunately for Daniel, the EDA360 message is much deeper than just "pay attention to the software". The EDA360 core message is: pay attention to applications. Magma is doing that through analog IP and the integration of IP with the tools they license. So Magma is in their own way ahead of the game in that area, since neither of the big three has yet figured out how to integrate IP and tools under one license.
