Signoff Summit: The Fastest Path to Design Signoff

Cadence’s Signoff Summit will be held next week, November 21 at Cadence in San Jose.

This is the first of a series of all-day Signoff Summits from Cadence that focus on the multiple facets of design signoff. This first summit will include keynote addresses plus sessions covering the multiple solution components that comprise a comprehensive signoff solution:

• Power analysis and signoff
• Parasitic extraction
• Digital timing closure and signoff
• Physical verification
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM)

There will be extended focus on the new Cadence® timing and power signoff solutions: Tempus™ and Voltus™. The Tempus Timing Signoff solution, announced in May 2013, generated huge attention at DAC. Voltus is a new Power Signoff solution that raises the bar for power analysis and signoff.

In each session, you will learn more details about the solutions and hear experiences directly from customers. For timing and power signoff, there will also be on-stage demos to show you in detail how these solutions perform.

To close the summit, there will be a cocktail hour from 5pm to 6pm. Silicon Signoff and Verification R&D technical staff will be on-hand to answer your detailed questions, plus additional demos will be shown.

Who should attend?

• Design engineers responsible for timing closure and signoff
• Design engineers responsible for power analysis and signoff
• Design/CAD engineers interested in learning about advancements in signoff solutions
• Project managers interested in learning how the latest Cadence signoff solutions can be used to improve their design methodology

What you will learn

• The latest information on each of the signoff component solutions
• How each of the solutions can improve your design flows and methodology
• Practical usage of the signoff solutions directly from customers
• Live demos of all solutions
