Artisan Library Support for Cadence Encounter Signal Integrity Solutions Now Available for Download
SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 5, 2004 -- Artisan Components, Inc. (Nasdaq:ARTI), a leading provider of physical intellectual property (IP) today announced immediate web-based availability of library support for Cadence(R) signal integrity (SI) solutions in the Encounter(R) digital IC design platform at no charge to licensed customers. This support can help customers address signal-integrity issues early in the design process and help establish a predictable path to signal-integrity sign-off.
"The wires-first approach offered in the Encounter platform, enables design teams to account for signal-integrity effects early in the design process," said Eric Filseth, vice president of marketing, digital IC implementation at Cadence Design Systems, Inc. "Our collaboration with Artisan to facilitate tool support through their proven libraries ensures a complete infrastructure is available to our customers to help design success and realize a significant time-to-market advantage."
Customers can use the signal-integrity library views provided by Artisan to help accurately assess signal and power integrity issues both during design implementation using the SoC Encounter SI closure flow and for signal integrity signoff using Cadence's CeltIC (signal integrity analyzer), SignalStorm NDC (nanometer delay calculator) and VoltageStorm PE (power integrity analyzer). The combination of these products and library views helps achieve accurate timing signoff that accounts for the combined impact of crosstalk and IR drop, both common contributors to nanometer silicon failures.
"The signal integrity library views made available as a result of our collaboration with Cadence have already helped customers in their designs," said Neal Carney, vice president of marketing at Artisan. "Providing web-based download capability further benefits our customers by facilitating easy access to library data that can help achieve successful silicon implementation."
Artisan's library support for Cadence SI models can now be downloaded from Artisan's website at www.artisan.com.
