STMicroelectronics has announced that it has selected Cadence's Virtual Component Co-Design (VCC) for both its Automotive and Digital Consumer platform system-level design methodology and design flow.

STMicroelectronics' Audio & Automotive Division uses VCC for behavioural modelling and architectural exploration in automotive design flows. For ST's new power train architecture project, VCC addresses those system-level parts of the design flow that significantly influence SoC size and complexity.

This includes behavioural modelling and architecture exploration to enable knowledge transfer with internal and external system customers, and design refinement and export to implementation-level co-verification.

STMicroelectronics, one of the world's largest semiconductor manufacturers and a leading supplier of system-on-chip (SoC) solutions, was one of the original VCC development partners.
