Cadence Receives Two TSMC Partner of the Year Awards for 10nm FinFET Solutions and Analog/Mixed-Signal IP
SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 28, 2015 -- Cadence Design Systems, Inc. today announced that it received two TSMC Partner of the Year awards at this year's TSMC Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) Ecosystem Forum. Cadence was presented with awards for both joint development of the 10nm FinFET design infrastructure and analog/mixed-signal IP.
The award for joint development of the 10nm design infrastructure was given based on the early, in-depth collaboration between TSMC and Cadence on FinFET enablement and the development of this latest advanced-node technology for next-generation system-on-chip (SoC) designs. Cadence provides combined digital, signoff and custom/analog tool flows that are integrated on a common OpenAccess database, incorporating integrated signoff engines that have been validated by TSMC on high-performance reference designs. Cadence® tools certified for TSMC's 10nm process include Innovus™ Implementation System, Quantus™ QRC Extraction Solution, Tempus™ Timing Signoff Solution, Voltus™ IC Power Integrity Solution, Voltus-Fi Custom Power Integrity Solution, Virtuoso® custom IC advanced-node platform, Physical Verification System, Litho Electrical Analyzer and the entire Spectre® simulation platform. For more information on the Cadence tools, please visit www.cadence.com/products/Pages/all_products.aspx.
The analog/mixed-signal IP award was based on customer feedback, portfolio breadth, strong technical support capabilities and customer adoption/production volume. The Cadence IP portfolio is comprised of Denali® memory, interface, and analog IP and includes protocols such as DDR4, LPDDR4, ONFI 4, UFS, SATA, PCIe® 4.0, USB 3, MIPI SLIMBus, SoundWire, CSI, DSI, UniPro, DigRF 100G Ethernet, XAUI, PON, SGMII, LTE, and WiGig.
