Shanghai Research Center for Integrated Circuit Design and Cadence Introduce New CPU/DSP Core-Based Methodology for SOC

Cadence Design Systems, Inc. and the Shanghai Research Center For Integrated Circuit Design (ICC), China's first national integrated circuit (IC) design industrialization base founded by China's Ministry of Science and Technology, today announced the availability of the ICC-Cadence CPU/digital signal processing (DSP) system-on-chip (SoC) reference methodology. The reference methodology, which includes the Cadence© Encounter digital implementation platform, Incisive™ functional verification platform and CoWare software tools for electronic system-level design and verification, is the first to offer rapid and predictable implementation of SoC chip designs for the expanding IC industry in China.
