Summary: | IC innovations in the ASIC arena have outpaced the functionality of EDA tools, creating a design gap that limits designer productivity and stalls timeto-market. EDA companies like Mentor Graphics, anticipating similar design challenges with programmable logic, are working closely with programmable logic vendors to research and develop design tools capable of handling next-generation device architectures. Bridging this design gap requires more than simply retrofitting current ASIC tools, though. |
