The Cadence® Encounter® Digital Implementation System delivers new foundational ultra-efficient core memory architecture for the ultimate in capacity and performance along with the industry's first and only native and truly scalable end-to-end multi-core design backplane. It also provides a completely extensible architecture to handle the latest requirements for design closure, low power, mixed-signal, design for manufacturability, and yield optimization for complex, advanced node flat and hierarchical designs.
Attend this seminar and get a glimpse of the Encounter Digital Implementation System in person and discuss its capabilities with Cadence technologists.
During this highly technical series, you will hear presentations that include in-depth scenarios of digital design challenges that you may be struggling with today, as well as the latest features and functionalities of the Encounter Digital Implementation System that will help you overcome such challenges. In addition, you will see technology demonstrations in each of the five areas where the Encounter Digital Implementation System excels: design closure, low power, mixed signal, signoff analysis, and advanced node, including new 32nm requirements.
Don't miss this opportunity to interact with other users, new users, and technical experts. Find out how to:
Develop automated, multi-dimensional floorplans for fast design closure
Accelerate design runtimes with a timing-convergent design flow
Save design power using multiple techniques, a hierarchical flow, the right number of power-switches and a simple solution for always-on buffers
Get early feedback on the power grid for IR drop and rush current
Pick the correct chip package early on in the design flow with a right balance of decoupling capacitors
Manage floorplan/timing/ECOs between analog and digital design teams
Analyze substrate noise and impact on analog IP
Support requirements for 32nm, DFM, and DFY
Push design performance and power limits with a comprehensive methodology for systematic and random variation
