Cadence Encounter Test 15.12.000 for linuxHaving the right tools to design and verify your chips has never been more important. After all, you\’re trying to stay on top of Moore\’s Law and meet the design challenges that come with this. However, with electronic circuits being an integral component of so many products, design and verification also extends to packages, boards, and the whole system. To help you create high-quality, differentiated electronic products, Cadence offers a broad portfolio of tools to address an array of challenges related to custom IC, digital, IC package, and PCB design and system-level verification. Find the tools and methodologies you need to meet your power, performance, and area targets; overcome mixed-signal design constraints; achieve faster design...
Encounter RTL Compiler Global synthesis that enables concurrent optimization of timing, area, and power intentEncounter® RTL Compiler offers a unique set of patented global-focus algorithms that perform true top-down global RTL design synthesis to accelerate silicon realization. With concurrent multi-objective optimization (timing, area, and power intent) and support for advanced low-power design techniques, Encounter RTL Compiler reduces chip power consumption while meeting frequency goals. Encounter RTL Compiler performs multi-objective optimization that simultaneously considers timing, power, and area intent to create logic structures that converge on all these goals in a single pass. Features/Benefits A well-balanced logic structure isolates critical paths, reduces power, area, and congestion in off-critical logic, and enables faster timing closure and design convergence through placement and routing...

Cadence Encounter RTL Compiler 9.1 Linux allows engineers to look across the entire design as they employ concurrent optimization techniques, such as making tradeoffs among timing, area, and power. To maximize performance, decrease die size, reduce power consumption, and boost productivity, designers need a global synthesis solution that enables concurrent optimization of timing, area, and power. Encounter RTL Compiler, a key component of the Cadence Logic Design Team Solution, delivers production-proven global synthesis for faster, smaller, and low-power chips in less time. With its unique set of patented global-focus algorithms, combined with new physically-aware optimization and analysis, Encounter RTL Compiler cuts design time while ensuring the highest quality of silicon. Features/Benefits A well-balanced logic structure isolates critical paths and reduces power,...
! Optimizing designs for leakage and dynamic power helps designers reduce energy consumption and packaging costs. But these advanced low-power design methods also complicate the verification task, introducing risk during synthesis and physical implementation. Full-chip, gate-level simulation is not a practical or scalable methodology for verifying today’s large, complex designs. Cadence® Encounter® Conformal® Low Power enables designers to verify and debug multimillion-gate designs optimized for low power, without simulating test vectors. It combines low-power structural and functional checks with world-class equivalence checking to provide superior performance, capacity, and ease of use. Features/Benefits Minimizes silicon re-spin risk by providing complete verification coverage Detects low-power implementation errors early in the design cycle Verifies multimillion-gate designs much faster than traditional gate-level simulation Closes...
Encounter Timing System serves both front-end logic designers looking for high-quality, high-throughput timing analysis and ease of use, as well as back-end implementation engineers requiring electrical analysis and a common timing engine for silicon-accurate signoff. With Cadence® Encounter® Timing System, designers benefit from a consistent, integrated, multi-CPU enabled, static timing analysis (STA) environment for place-and-route optimization and signoff verification, leading to faster design closure and better flow convergence. Encounter Timing System helps designers analyze and debug multimillion-gate designs with significant gains in productivity. Global timing debug pinpoints the root cause of timing and constraint issues at the push of a button. Sophisticated delay calculation ensures accuracy and performance. Using the effective current source model (ECSM) for advanced timing, power, signal...
