 design or synthesis, gate-level verification, floorplanning, place and route, and physical verification. Designers use our EDA products to accelerate and automate the chip design process, reduce errors and enable more powerful and robust designs, with improved productivity for faster time to market. 

As the availability and amount of cloud-based data storage grows, customer interest in accessing EDA on the cloud is also increasing as customers seek to benefit from the scalability and flexibility that cloud computing can offer to their flows and engineering teams. Our Synopsys Cloud offering provides customers additional options for accessing our EDA products in their own cloud environments and in the industry’s first EDA Software-as-a-Service solution developed in partnership with Microsoft Azure.

Our solutions comprehensively address the design process, featuring a large number of EDA products that generally fall into the following categories:

Table of Contents

•Digital and custom IC design tools are used for designing and verifying complex chips, and for designing the advanced processes and models required to manufacture those chips; 

•Field programmable gate array (FPGA) design, which accelerate time-to-shipping hardware with deep debug visibility, incremental design, broad language support, and optimal performance and area for FPGA-based products. 

•Verification, which includes technology to verify that an IC design behaves as intended; 

•Manufacturing, which includes products that both enable early manufacturing process development and convert IC design layouts into the masks used to manufacture the chips; and

•AI-driven EDA solutions, which include AI and machine learning capabilities to boost productivity and improve efficiency throughout the EDA flow.

Digital and Custom IC Design

Our Digital Design Family provides customers with a comprehensive digital design implementation solution that includes industry-leading products and redefines conventional design tool boundaries to deliver a more integrated flow than ever before, with better quality and time to results. The platform gives designers the flexibility to integrate internally developed tools as well as those from third parties. With innovative technologies, a common foundation, and flexibility, our Digital Design Family helps reduce design times, decrease uncertainties in design steps, and minimize the risks inherent in advanced, complex IC design. The platform supports advanced nodes with collaborations on next-generation process technologies.

Key design products are available as part of the Digital Design Family and include Fusion CompilerTM RTL to GDSII design implementation, Design Compiler® NXT logic synthesis, IC CompilerTM II physical design, Synopsys TestMAXTM test and diagnosis, PrimeTime® static timing analysis, PrimePowerTM power analysis, PrimeLib library characterization, StarRCTM parasitic
