commits to toolset
Aspex Technology has selected Cadence solutions to help it meet the market demand for scalable, fully software-programmable processors that deliver high performance with low power consumption
Aspex will deploy Cadence products under a two-year agreement covering every element of its design flow, from initial design to simulation and verification. Using technology from the Cadence Encounter digital IC design platform, Aspex will be able to quickly produce a silicon virtual prototype with detailed wiring that provides an accurate view of timing and removes significant risk from project schedules.
