nodes from 0.35um to 28nm, and
everything in between—the Virtuoso
custom design platform is built on the
OpenAccess database, engineered by
Cadence for industry-wide interoperability.
The Virtuoso custom design platform
accelerates the design of custom
ICs across various process nodes. By
selectively automating aspects of custom
analog design and providing advanced
technologies integrated on a common
database, it allows engineers to focus on
precision-crafting their designs—without
sacrificing creativity to repetitive
manual tasks.

product suite provides all the capabilities
required to fully explore, analyze and verify
a design against the users desired goals. As
the industry’s leading solution for analog
simulation control and management, it
allows users to flexibly select the tier that

When design objectives dictate
manipulating precise analog quantities—
voltages, currents, charges, and continuous
ratios of parameter values such as
resistance and capacitance—companies
turn to custom design. Full-custom design
maximizes performance while minimizing
area and power. However, it requires
significant handcrafting by a select set
of engineers with very high skill levels. In
addition, custom circuits are more sensitive
to physical effects, which are exacerbated
at new nanometer process nodes.
The new unified Virtuoso custom design
platform utilizes the latest in modern user
interfaces and design tool integration
advances to bring unprecedented levels
of productivity and integration to design
creation, verification, and implementation.

Design Environment L provides a quick
entry into the analysis process with easy
entry and execution of simulations. Analog
Design Environment XL extends the L tier
capabilities, providing multiple test support,
analysis over sweeps, corners, and Monte
Carlo, and easy reviewing of all results
directly or as a datasheet. Analog Design
Environment GXL builds on the Analog
Design Environment L and XL capabilities
by providing targeted tools that aid with
key design challenges with early parasitic
analysis, design centering, and designing in
multi-technologies.
