Automatic digital block implementation
for a mixed-signal design methodology


Key Benefits 

   •   Rapid design closure and shorter overall design cycle

   •   Faster convergence on design goals and fewer iterations

   •   Unified design intent and abstraction ensures consistent design constraints
        throughout the entire flow

   •   Co-design of digital and analog components in a single environment

   •   Rapid timing convergence for mixed-signal blocks

   •   Integrated power planning, power routing, and what-if power analysis enables
        smart power rail synthesis

   •   Support for multiple power domains enables a low-power methodology
   
   •   State-of-the-art clock tree synthesis

   •   Advanced-node-design enabled
  

Cadence® Virtuoso® Digital Implementation is a complete and automatic
synthesis/place-and-route system. It enables capacity-limited block implementation for small
digital components in the context of an advanced analog-driven mixed-signal design. Driven by
unified design intent and abstraction, and powered by OpenAccess interoperability, Virtuoso
Digital Implementation ensures a consistent and convergent design flow that accelerates time
to market for complex mixed-signal designs. 

Virtuoso Digital Implementation delivers a capacity-limited, automatic, RTL-to-GDSII
implementation solution for small digital blocks that complements an analog-driven mixed-signal
design methodology with the Virtuoso platform. Virtuoso Digital Implementation leverages
Cadence Genus Synthesis Solution for physical synthesis and Innovus Implementation System
functionality for physical implementation. Used in combination, these technologies speed
turnaround time from synthesis to optimization to verification, and deliver high-quality,
high-performance, and lower-power digital blocks for mixed-signal designs.
