Delivers fast and accurate creation and verification of power intent


Key Benefits 

  •  Reduces the risk of silicon re-spins by providing complete verification coverage

  •  Detects low-power implementation errors early in the design cycle

  •  Verifies multi-million-gate designs much faster than traditional gate-level simulation

  •  Closes the RTL-to-layout verification gap using low-power equivalence checking

  •  Decreases the risk of missing critical bugs through independent verification technology
 
  •  Enables power intent creation and integration, without having to become a power
      format expert
  

Cadence® Conformal® Low Power enables the creation and validation of power intent in the context of
a design. Conformal technology combines low-power equivalence checking with structural and functional
checks to enable full-chip verification of power-efficient designs.

Optimizing designs for leakage and dynamic power helps designers reduce energy consumption and
packaging costs. These advanced low-power design methods can also complicate the verification task,
introducing risk during synthesis and physical implementation. 

Full-chip, gate-level simulation is not a practical or scalable methodology for verifying today’s large,
complex designs. Conformal low power enables designers to create power intent, then verify and debug
multi-million-gate designs without simulating test vectors. It combines low-power structural and
functional checks with world-class equivalence checking to provide superior performance, capacity,
and ease of use.
