STMicroelectronics uses Cadence VCC methodology
STMicroelectronics has selected the Cadence Virtual Component Co-Design (VCC) for both its automotive and digital consumer platform system-level design methodology and design flow.
New capabilities include advanced low-power synthesis with top-down multiple-supply-voltage (MSV) optimisation, automatic physical layout estimation (PLE), top-down retiming for high-performance designs, multiple-CPU superthreading to improve customer productivity, and single-pass multimode synthesis.
Advanced low-power-design techniques create new challenges for traditional synthesis tools.
Encounter RTL Compiler global synthesis is architected to concurrently optimise timing, area and power, thus resulting in optimal quality of silicon (QoS), even under challe
