Our physical design consultants are available to assist your team throughout the entire RTL-to-GDSII process, from performing specialized tasks, to taking on a block, all the way up to full-chip implementations. Hire us to:
1. Augment Your Physical Design Team:
2. Become Your Temporary Backend Team:
If you don’t have an internal physical design team but would like to build one, our consultants can act as an interim team while you build yours. During this interim period, we’ll perform all your RTL-GDSII tasks. Finally, when the time is right, we’ll transfer the tasks over to your new team and support them until they are self-sufficient.
Project# A3HEJG: Design Exploration Helps Startup Prove Feasibility of IP Performance
A startup needed to prove its IP performance feasibility claims to potential customers. They hired Synopsys Design Services for Physical Design & Assistance.
Our consultants setup the flow, created a floorplan and performed synthesis-through-route-optimization tasks, including static timing and extraction. Subsequent analysis lent credibility to the client’s performance predictions for both timing and power.
The engineering manager described the engagement as “…much more than standard consulting services…” calling it, “…a network of resources to tap into.” Synopsys Design Services delivered more than expected, “…helping us down the road” by also recommending options for delivering their IP as a hard macro.
