Leading software and semiconductor IP design company Synopsys Inc. (SNPS) recently introduced the Synphony HLS (High Level Synthesis) solution that combines M-language and model-based synthesis, enabling the delivery of around ten times higher design and verification productivity compared to traditional RTL (Register Transfer Level) flows for communication.  In RTL design, a circuit's behavior is defined in terms of the flow of signals (or transfer of data) between hardware registers and the logical operations performed on those signals. This whole operation is carried out within a span of time, which will be drastically reduced by the introduction of HLS technology.  Synphony HLS is made through a combination of Synopsys’ Design Compiler, Synplify Premier, Confirma, VCS, System Studio and Innovator products in order to facilitate the process of prototyping, implementation and verification flows from algorithm to silicon. Technical experts expect that the Synphony HLS will significantly change the ...

Synopsys Inc. (SNPS) continues to be the favorite EDA partner for many IC solutions providers and electronic appliance companies. Recently, the company has expanded its business agreement with Sunplus Technology Co. Ltd. As per the new multi-year agreement, Sunplus will be using Synopsys’ Galaxy Implementation and Discovery Verification platform for their chip design and has also extended the use of Synopsys DesignWare IP.  Sunplus is a player in the home entertainment applications market and Synopsys, through its technical know-how and enhanced design solutions, will be able to meet the increasing demand and design complexity of the company. Sunplus serves in a dynamic consumer market where change is a constant phenomenon. We believe Synopsys will be able to offer the design solution, which will help Sunplus address this dynamic consumer market.  Synopsys is benefiting from the increasing complexity of semiconductors and more challenging shrink cycles. The company ...

Synopsys Inc. (SNPS) recently launched its new StarRC Custom parasitic extraction solution for analog mixed-signal (AMS) and custom digital IC design. This new technology has been formed through the combination of Star-RCTX extraction technologies and the Raphael NXT 3D fast field solver. The new product will offer better runtime and optimum accuracy to support the analytical capability of the highly sensitive circuits. This new solution is linked with Synopsys' CustomSim circuit simulator and also Synopsys' Galaxy Custom Designer implementation solution to improve runtime and designer productivity, while ensuring accuracy of the circuits. To address the issues related to simulation and severe bottlenecks faced by circuits today, Synopsys has come out with StarRC Custom, which will not only improve extraction runtime but improve the simulation process by optimizing data extraction. This apart, the company claims that it will be the first IP (Intellectual Property) vendor to ...

Synopsys Inc. (SNPS) recently announced the addition of a new major customer, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSM). The latter has adopted Synopsys' HSIM hierarchical FastSPICE circuit simulator for its sub-40-nanometer, memory intellectual property characterization flow.  The HSIM technology will be used in TSM's advanced SRAM compilers for improvement in timing and power simulation techniques. It will also facilitate the process of full chip simulation process.  This new technology from Synopsys will help TSM improve memory characterization efficiency by almost 10 times. TSM has adopted this technology, as the Synopsys’ technology is expected to be superior to those offered by other software and semiconductor companies.  We are encouraged by Synopsys' new technologies and its ability to attract new and important customers, which should improve the company's revenue and cash flows going forward.  Synopsis has also been returning cash to investors. Recently, the company declared ...

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (CDNS), headquartered in San Jose, California, is a leading provider of electronic design automation (EDA) software that chipmakers use to design their integrated circuit (IC) components. Its solutions are used for designing semiconductors, networking and telecommunications equipment, computer systems, consumer electronics, and a host of other electronics-based products.

Cadence appears to be in big trouble as the company's CEO resigned unexpectedly amid mounting financial problems and disappointing results. The company reported lower-than-expected Q308 results hurt by restructuring charges and lower product revenues. Moreover, Cadence has again lowered its guidance for the full year of 2008.

We have lost confidence in the company's ability to survive in the market and show healthy fundamentals. Cadence has been losing share to Synopsys, Inc. (SNPS) and is struggling through a downturn in the semiconductor cycle. Cadence also withdrew its bid for Mentor Graphics earlier in the year, further dimming its
