Cadence provides a set of electronic design automation (EDA) tools for electronics design. Cadence tools are being used in academic research to design and layout Si. Ge Bipolar test circuits for 4. Gb/s data generation. The IBM Si. Ge 7. HP process is the target process for this project.
Interconnect group delay, clock and data distribution are being studied as well as the design of very high speed linear feedback shift registers and multiplexers. Cadence tools are also being used in millimeter- wave communication circuits and high- speed serial link transceivers in 1. CMOS technology. The UMC 0. IBM CMOS 1. 0SF are the target process.
Specifically, we are designing T/R switches, low- noise amplifiers, power amplifiers and high- speed equalizers. The ECE department site license for Cadence includes the following 2. University Software Program bundles. Custom Integrated Circuits Bundle. Digital Integrated Circuits Bundle. Verification Bundle. Packaging and Board Bundle.

FPGA synthesis software and an innovator in synthesis, verification, and physical implementation software solutions for designers of programmable logic devices (FPGAs, PLDs, CPLDs). The Synplicity tools are installed on the Windows workstations and the Linux workstations in the ECI E1 lab.
You can find the Synplicity tools on the Linux workstations in /eci/synplicity. The followings Synplicity tools are available. The industry's most widely used FPGA synthesis solution, Synplify Pro uses a true timing- driven approach to synthesis. Synplify Pro software delivers the performance e neded to meet your design's timing requirements and then optimizes your circuit for area, saving significantly on chip cost. Identify RTL Debugger is the first software tool that allows probing and debugging FPGA design directly in the source RTL. Identify software is used to verify your design in hardware as you would in simulation – only much faster and with in- system stimulus. The Identify tool allows navigating design graphically and mark signals directly in RTL as probes or sample triggers.
After synthesis, view the results in the RTL source code or in waveform. Design iterations are rapidly done using incremental place and route. Identify software is closely integrated with synthesis and routing tools for a seamless development environment. Synplify Premier.
The Synplify Premier solution builds upon Synplicity's industry- leading synthesis technology and adds new graph- based physical synthesis and real- time, simulator- like visibility into operating FPGA devices. Graph- based physical synthesis provides rapid timing closure and up to a 5- 2. Synplify DSP software is a true DSP synthesis tool and the only one that performs high- level DSP optimizations from a Simulink specification. These special DSP optimizations allow designers to capture the behavior needed for their DSP algorithm without worrying about the specific implementation in hardware. The Synplify DSP solution automatically produces a highly optimized, technology independent implementation of the design ready for RTL synthesis. Certify ASIC prototyping solution is the leading product for ASIC prototyping using multiple FPGAs.
Certify software combines RTL multi- chip partitioning with best- in- class FPGA synthesis. Using the Certify product makes ASIC prototyping significantly easier, shortens prototype development time, improves prototype performance, and enables faster time- to- market.
