Tanner EDA has released version 16 of its HiPer Silicon full-flow design suite, offering a complete analogue and mixed-signal design flow from digital (HDL) and analogue (Spice, Verilog-A) electrical design and simulation, through synthesis to physical layout and verification.
New features and functionality include OpenAccess database support for PDK and EDA tool interoperability, integrated mixed-signal simulation (Verilog-AMS co-simulation and parametric plots, scatter plots and improved text control and graphics manipulation.
“The adoption of OpenAccess for L-Edit offers analogue, mixed-signal and MEMS designers greater flexibility and opportunity to integrate our hallmark layout tool into large design environments,” said Greg Lebsack, Tanner EDA’s president.
HiPer Silicon v16 is available now for the Windows operating system. A Linux version will be available later in Q2 2013.
