Encounter Conformal ECO Designer ECO automation for greater predictability and design convergenceCadence® Encounter® Conformal® ECO Designer enables designers to implement RTL engineering change orders (ECOs) for pre- and post-mask layout, and offers early ECO prototyping capabilities for driving critical Yes/No project decisions.Engineering change orders (ECOs) have a wide variety of implementations that range from adding or removing logic in a design to more subtle changes such as cleaning up routing for signal integrity. All ECOs are focused on delivering products to market as fast as possible with minimal risk to correctness and schedule. ECOs can be a time of high stress, long work hours, and uncertainty. Even if the logic change is implemented in the netlist, there might not be...

Incisive Enterprise Simulator Multi-language simulation fuels testbench automation, low-power, metric driven verification, and mixed-signal verificationIncisive Enterprise Simulator (IES) provides the most comprehensive IEEE language support with unique capabilities supporting the intent, abstraction, and convergence needed to speed silicon realization. IES is the core engine for low-power verification working closely with Conformal LP, the digital engine for mixed-signal verification working with Virtuoso simulators, the testbench engine for simulation acceleration with Xtreme and Palladium, and the RTL engine working with TLM verification solutions.When digital simulation became commonplace in the 1980s, flows were simple: RTL, then gate, then implement. Since then, simulation has matured into verification and has become the critical means to enable productivity, predictability, and quality in complex FPGAs, ASICs, and...

Encounter RTL Compiler Global synthesis that enables concurrent optimization of timing, area, and power intentEncounter® RTL Compiler offers a unique set of patented global-focus algorithms that perform true top-down global RTL design synthesis to accelerate silicon realization. With concurrent multi-objective optimization (timing, area, and power intent) and support for advanced low-power design techniques, Encounter RTL Compiler reduces chip power consumption while meeting frequency goals. Encounter RTL Compiler performs multi-objective optimization that simultaneously considers timing, power, and area intent to create logic structures that converge on all these goals in a single pass. Features/Benefits A well-balanced logic structure isolates critical paths, reduces power, area, and congestion in off-critical logic, and enables faster timing closure and design convergence through placement and routing...

Cadence Encounter Digital Implementation (EDI) Design planningTo create a design layout that fulfills the often-conflicting objectives of performance, power, and cost, engineers must perform comprehensive physical design space exploration and feasibility analysis up front. And with the complexity and size of today’s designs, engineers need a system with the capacity to handle 100M instances and more. Cadence GigaFlex technology adapts to growing capacity requirements while also retaining the relevant timing, placement, and congestion information to accurately evaluate and analyze complex giga-scale designs. Our giga-scale prototyping foundation flow allows you to implement a silicon virtual prototyping methodology to perform the planning and analysis that ensures a smooth handoff to the physical implementation flow.
