May 26, 2006 – South Korea’s Dongbu Electronics and Cadence Design Systems Inc. have developed an RTL-to-GDSII reference flow for 0.13-micron semiconductor manufacturing process technologies.
The flow offers RTL and gate-level simulation and equivalence checking, with power optimization through clock-gating insertion, as well as signal-integrity analysis and repair.
Dongbu also has joined the Cadence Foundry Program as an “Advocate Partner,” and the two firms are working to develop process design kits for several Dongbu process technologies.
