Tcl is a versatile scripting language used in automation, testing, networking, and more. Tcl plays a crucial role in Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools used in the VLSI industry.

Leading EDA tools rely on the TCL scripting language to automate design flows, customize tool behavior, and streamline chip design processes. TCL provides a straightforward interface for performing various tasks with EDA tools, interactively…

Optimizing power can be a very convoluted and crucial process. To make design chips meet throughput goals and optimal power consumption, you need to plan right from the beginning! Power is HOT and touches everything and everybody!

Low-power synthesis is one of the important stages in the full IC flow. Using various techniques, you synthesize the design from behavioral description to gates while optimizing for dynamic…

If you're a chip designer or verification engineer, you have likely spent countless hours stressing over whether your design block is functionally accurate; in other words, "Will my chip actually do what it's supposed to?" Today, Cadence is announcing the next evolutions of its Conformal family of products to help you answer that exact question better. Introducing: Conformal AI Studio. I want to take…

Designs are tested in the labs for various electrical compliance tests defined in the electrical compliance test specifications before getting certified. There are defined processes and steps that a design must go through for such testing. Such tests are focused tests and need complete control of the specific parts of the design to do targeted testing with the generated stimulus. Hence, they are done outside of the normal…

The Cadence MSA team had a GREAT DesignCon highlighting how Cadence can help you accelerate your PCB and advanced IC packaging design cycles with electromagnetic, electronic, and thermal system analysis, and tackle advanced IC packaging and cross-platform challenges.

Here’s a quick recap of all our activities:
