Low Power Design Solutions

Synopsys offers software-driven low power exploration, analysis and optimization from architecture to signoff. The solution is built around industry-leading products for each stage of the design flow:

• Platform Architect™ for architecture exploration and early performance power tradeoffs using pre-RTL architecture models and software workloads
• ZeBu® Empower for power emulation with the capacity and performance for profiling software workloads to identify key windows of interest for further analysis and exploration
• SpyGlass® Power for RTL power exploration with fast turnaround time during initial stages of RTL development
• PrimePower RTL with RTL Architect for RTL power exploration with high accuracy as the RTL matures
• Fusion Compiler™ for RTL to GDSII implementation with the best PPA (Power-Performance-Area) results. Fusion of PrimePower for signoff power and RedHawk Analysis Fusion for power integrity ensure fast convergence
• Synopsys TestMAX™ for power-optimized automatic test pattern generation (ATPG)
• PrimePower for golden power signoff

Synopsys' solutions enable SoC designers to achieve optimal energy efficiency by maximizing power-reduction opportunities at each stage of design flow while meeting PPA targets.     ​
