Efficient, practical, and proven methodologies are vital to success, whether the challenge is adopting a new low-power design technique, ramping up the design team on a new software platform, beginning a new project in a geographically distributed environment, or optimizing business processes to improve efficiency. But developing an effective production design environment that uses efficient methodologies is easier said than done. Often, problems with systems developed in-house aren't identified until late in the development process, resulting in schedule slips and strained resources.
To ensure project predictability, Cadence Services provides extensive expertise in production-proven methodologies that address a variety of design needs, including:
- Power-efficient design
- Digital IC design
- Functional verification
- Mixed-signal design
- Custom IC design
- Design for manufacturing (DFM)
- Silicon-package-board co-design
All methodologies can be adapted, customized, and optimized to specific customer needs, including integration of third-party tools and technology where appropriate. Depending on customer project requirements and existing expertise, Cadence offers a variety of flexible engagement and delivery options, including:
Methodology assessment
We audit the customer's existing environment to identify potential problem areas.
Methodology assistance
We assist customer design teams with the development and integration of new technologies and processes.
Turn-key methodology development
We tailor production-proven methodologies to customer needs and implement them without impact on design team or project schedule.
Design-first collaborations
We work alongside the customer team during development, applying the production design environment (PDE) approach to ensure initial project success without compromising the schedule.
Using our unique collaboration infrastructure, Cadence Services can leverage our pool of worldwide experts to quickly address any challenges that arise during the development and support of your production design environment.
