Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS) today announced that the AI-based Cadence® Virtuoso® Studio design tools and solutions have been certified by Samsung Foundry. Joint customers can confidently leverage Virtuoso Studio and Samsung’s mature and advanced node process design kits (PDKs) down to SF2 to advance next-generation analog, custom, RF and mixed-signal design.

Customers using Samsung PDKs will benefit from key Cadence product integrations, such as the integration between Virtuoso Studio and the Cadence Pegasus™ Verification System, enabling faster turnaround times and more predictable design cycle times with design rule checks (DRCs), layout versus schematic (LVS), hierarchical metal fill (HMF) insertion and design-for-manufacturing (DFM) signoff. Additionally, the Pegasus Verification Solution enables InDesign physical verification, delivering the broader expansion and inclusion of the Pegasus DRC and fill capabilities within the Virtuoso Studio Layout for 4X faster turnaround times.

The Cadence Voltus™-XFi Custom Power Integrity Solution, also integrated with Virtuoso Studio, is also now optimized and certified for Samsung Foundry’s advanced process technologies. This enables customers to confidently adopt state-of-the-art and future-ready custom IC design flow with Samsung Foundry PDKs. Furthermore, customers benefit from better power usage and improved design performance. The seamless integration of the Cadence Voltus-XFi power-grid-view (PGV) macro models into the Voltus IC Power Integrity Solution, alongside the Virtuoso Studio platform, enables full-chip power integrity signoff.
