Resources for EDA Tools

CEDEC will provide access to EDA tools to support the integrated circuit (IC) design flow from front-end design entry to back-end design verification. Three separate sets of EDA tools will be provided, depending on need basis, as listed below:

Digital Design EDA Tools (Synopsys)

Stages		Tool
Front End	1. RTL coding / logic simulation	Synopsys VCS
	2. Logic synthesis	Synopsys Design-Compiler
	3. Gate logic simulation	Synopsys VCS
Back End	4. Static timing analysis	Synopsys PrimeTime
	5. Floorplan, clock tree synthesis, power analysis, place & route	Synopsys Astro
	6. Physical verification	Synopsys Hercules
	7. Physical extraction	Synopsys Star-RCXT
	8. Final static timing analysis	Synopsys PrimeTime
	9. Final post layout simulation	Synopsys VCS
