 (design for manufacturability) solution which combined with litho physical analyzer to create a flow that accurately predicted final silicon results.

Cadence encounter digital implementation (EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) The electronic communication of business transactions, such as orders, confirmations and invoices, between organizations. Third parties provide EDI services that enable organizations with different equipment to connect. ) system integrates both the litho physical analyzer and litho electrical analyzer for rigorous context-dependent physical and electrical signoff of cells prior to full chip implementation. The flow leverages model-based physical and electrical design for manufacturing (DFM) technologies to improve the quality and reliability of standard cell libraries, intellectual property (IP) cores, and full chip to increase manufacturing yield in full chips.

Max Liu, VP of SMIC Design Services Center, said: "With the Cadence DFM flow, we could analyze cell and IP variability and accurately model their performance in real silicon. By characterizing and reducing the variability, our customers will be able to reduce guard-banding and to produce higher quality silicon. The solution also enables near-linear scalability, which is necessary for a full-chip electrical DFM verification flow."
