Release Brings New Advances in Productivity with Advanced Analog Environment and Schematic Driven Layout
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., June 15 / / - Synopsys, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNPS), a world leader in software and IP for semiconductor design, verification and manufacturing, today announced availability of advanced analog simulation and layout capabilities in its Galaxy Custom Designer(TM) implementation solution. The new features in the 2009.06 release deliver productivity advances to aid analog circuit designers and layout engineers, enabling Synopsys to further extend its reach in the custom implementation segment.
The Custom Designer 2009.06 release adds significant new capabilities, including high-capacity, high-performance schematic-driven layout (SDL) designed for today''s large analog blocks. The SDL capability features robust schematic and layout synchronization technology and a streamlined engineering change order (ECO) flow. Also included in the 2009.06 release is an easy-to-use analog simulation and analysis environment featuring high-performance waveform display and processing, mixed text/schematic integration and Tcl scripting for batch verification.
"Designer productivity should quickly improve with Custom Designer''s new capabilities. Additionally, the open environment and support for interoperable process design kits should enhance design reuse and portability," said Anand Valavi, group head and manager, Analog Mixed Signal Group at Wipro. "The 2009.06 release of Custom Designer continues Synopsys'' established record of delivering differentiated capabilities with the same high quality, ease-of-use and enhanced productivity that we have come to expect."
