ATI standardises on tools
for 90nm and below
Cadence Design Systems has signed a broad reaching agreement with ATI Technologies under which ATI will standardise on Cadence SoC Encounter and a wide spectrum of other Cadence tools
Cadence's ability to provide leadership and end-to-end design solutions makes it a natural partner for customers consolidating on fewer electronic design suppliers. ATI plans to incorporate Cadence technologies into its design environment to enhance the ATI design flow. Cadence will provide ATI with access to Cadence's internal research and development team as well as onsite migration support to assist ATI in the adoption of new Cadence technology "We have tremendous respect for ATI and look forward to helping them solve their toughest design challenges at 90 nanometres and below", said Penny Herscher, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Cadence.
