VIRTUOSO LAYOUT SUITE L
VIRTUOSO CUSTOM
DESIGN PLATFORM
When design objectives dictate manipu-
lating 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.
Backed by the largest number of process
design kits (PDKs) available from the
world’s leading foundries—for process

Layout Suite L is the base-level physical
layout environment of the Virtuoso custom design platform,
a complete solution for front-to-back custom analog, digital,
RF, and mixed-signal design. It supports custom physical
implementation at the device, cell, block, and chip level.
