Need to come up to speed on RTL Compiler

Dear asichacker,
I saw your post on the forum and thought it best if I reply. I am the co-moderator of this forum, and also the Core Comp AE Manager for RTL-Compiler at Cadence. We have a number of ways we can help you get up to speed on RTL-Compiler including jumpstarts, Rapid Adoption Kits, documentation, and assistance from our AE team. Why don't you contact me directly so that we can work together to help you with this transition to RTL-Compiler. I am sure you will find that it is not as difficult as you might think. You can contact me at jflieder@cadence.com. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hello.

If the information is online and downloadable, just post the links.

Thanks

Asichacker,
The documentation for RC should be availble to you as part of the purchase of the tool. I'd suggest checking with your internal people to see where they are posted. As for the other training materials, these are meant to be delivered by our AE team and are not publically available otherwise. Please let me know what we can do to assist in your transition.

Hi asichacker,

have you tried http://sourcelink.cadence.com ?
This is similar to solvenet on the Synopsys side of things.
I have to confess when I first tried RC it took some getting used to it after developing DC scripts and infrastructure for a substantial chunk of my career. Currently I have to say I like RC better. The use model is simpler and if/when you need to script, the database is much more intuitive and accessible. Ultimately the results are better which tops any of the other criteria. Anyhow, I digress - I think sourcelink and the docs are a decent place for the info you are looking for.

good luck,
