Cadence Update 2012!

Cadence Update 2012!

Categories: Cadence, EDA

What’s new at Cadence? Quite a bit actually. I have always been a Cadence fan, I mean really, they gave birth to modern EDA. Unfortunately, Cadence really lost me during the Avant! legal action, the Mike Fister years, and EDA360. Recently, however, Cadence has made some big changes that will definitely get them back on my good side. The most recent change being the hiring of Martin Lund, SVP of the SoC Realization Business Unit.

SoC Realization is a strategic growth area for Cadence,” said Lip-Bu Tan, president and CEO. “While at Broadcom, Martin Lund grew the company to become the global leader in Ethernet switch SoCs for data center, service provider, enterprise, and SMB markets, and successfully drove several strategic acquisitions. His extensive operational experience equips him well to scale our SoC Realization business.”

As I have said before, IP is the center of the semiconductor universe and Martin Lund certainly knows IP from his 12 years at Broadcom and 20+ patents. Hopefully Martin accepts my LinkedIn invitation so we can talk in more detail.

“Cadence is in an excellent position to deliver differentiated IP for memory, storage and connectivity,” said Martin Lund. “Customers are looking to Cadence to be their trusted partner in delivering these IP reliably and with high quality. This is an exciting time to join Cadence and I am looking forward to helping accelerate the company’s success.”

Also new at Cadence is one of the mostaggressive DAC schedules I have seen from them in a long time. They have numerous luncheons, breakfasts, exhibits, tutorials, and workshops planned where they will take on the challenges of the evolving semiconductor ecosystem. And of course, you won’t want to miss the Denali party, especially if you are looking forward to hearing loss.
