Cadence Introduces Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution
Addressing the critical power challenges faced by electronics developers, Cadence Design Systems, Inc. has introduced Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution.
Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution draws on new technology as well as integration with Cadence IC, package, PCB and system tools to enable design teams to better manage power issues throughout the product development cycle and achieve faster design closure.
"As a global leader in embedded processing semiconductor solutions, Freescale is always on the lookout for new design tools that help us innovate and create at the most advanced levels of technology," said Ken Hansen, vice president and chief technology officer at Freescale Semiconductor. "We are teaming early on with Cadence to validate the Voltus technology and we are impressed by its performance gains. This type of enhanced productivity is invaluable to help us meet our time-to-market goals."
Following the May release of Tempus Timing Signoff Solution, the Voltus solution marks the second new product this year from Cadence aimed at speeding design signoff and closure.
"With power issues playing an ever-growing role in SoCs, we realized that existing technology would not meet the needs for complex designs," said Anirudh Devgan, Senior Vice President of the Digital and Signoff Group (DSG) at Cadence. "Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution is Cadence's answer to these challenges, and all our early adopters are reporting great successes on its performance and capacity, including on-time tapeout for one of the industry's largest chips."
