Magma Introduces Titan Analog Circuit Design Acceleration Solution
Titan Analog Migration enables design, reuse and porting of complex high-performance analog and mixed-signal circuits
Tweet -- Magma® Design Automation (Nasdaq: LAVA), a provider of chip design software, today announced Titan™ Analog Migration, solving the analog mixed-signal circuit design and porting problem through a unique modeling approach and enabling circuit optimization for a given process technology in a matter of hours without lengthy SPICE runs.
Titan Analog Migration, an integral part of Magma's Titan mixed-signal design platform, focuses on solving analog/mixed-signal design, optimization and porting challenges. Titan Analog Migration's model-based approach allows circuit optimization and porting in a fraction of the time required by simulation-based techniques. The technology enables product groups to push the design envelope for extreme performance, to center the design for multiple process, voltage and temperature (PVT) corner cases and reduce power and jitter. In addition to providing an efficient and predictable way of storing analog circuits, Magma's Titan Analog Migration reduces design porting time from several weeks to days.
"The simulation-based optimization methodology has not changed for over 25 years and is far too time consuming to use for large-scale analog circuit designs," said Suk Lee, general manager of Magma's Custom Design Business Unit. "Titan Analog Migration allows designers to capture design know-how in a structured and repeatable format and optimize circuits to given specifications using mathematical optimization techniques. It allows customers to very quickly explore the specification boundaries of their own circuits and optimize analog circuits for lower power and lower area in a fraction of the time."
