Magma integrates TSMC's reference flow 7.0 Magma Design Automation Inc., a provider of semiconductor design software, and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) announced the integration of Magma's software into TSMC's Reference Flow 7.0. Magma's integrated circuit (IC) implementation system, including Blast Create, Blast Fusion, Blast Power, Quartz SSTA, Blast Yield TX and Quartz DRC, enables users to address the design challenges and variability that emerge in 65-nanometer (nm) process geometries. Ed Wan, senior director of design service marketing at TSMC, said, "We have worked very closely with Magma to model variability at 65-nm and below, and to anticipate the challenges designers face. With Magma software in the TSMC Reference Flow 7.0, designers can access a comprehensive and integrated implementation and verification flow that accounts for the complexities and interdependencies of power, timing, area and variability." Kam Kittrell, general manager of Magma's design implementation business unit, stated, "Although we have been working with TSMC for years, having a complete methodology integrated into the TSMC Reference Flow 7.0 is a milestone in our drive to become one of the top electronic design automation providers. TSMC's inclusion of our software in Reference Flow 7.0 gives designers additional confidence in their ability to achieve silicon success." http://tinyurl.com/h6yqy --
