ISQED 2011 Lunch Tutorial

 

Wednesday March 16, 2011

Sponsored by Mentor Graphics

Room: Wincheter/Stevens Creek

12:00noon-1:30PM

Signoff-driven Custom Physical Design

 

 

Rich Morse - Technical Marketing Manager, SpringSoft

Joseph C. Davis - Calibre Interface Marketing Manager, Mentor Graphics

Richard Rouse - Distinguished Engineer , MoSys

 

Custom designers are the first to face the challenges of implementing circuits in each new technology. This means that they have to implement advanced, differentiated, and robust designs while the technology is still evolving. They face new device behaviors, lithography and CMP effects, and the quickly growing range of design rules. This session will highlight the new challenges of analog physical design and introduce a new solution to bring signoff-quality physical verification into the custom design environment to improve design time and quality.
