Magma(R) Design Automation Inc. (Nasdaq:LAVA), a provider of chip design software, today announced the final agenda for the MUSIC China users conference in Shanghai on March 23. The program will feature technical presentations and a tutorial given by Magma users, design industry experts and Magma’s staff. Magma CEO Rajeev Madhavan will deliver a keynote address entitled “The Electronic Ocean.”
MUSIC Agenda Focuses on Meeting Today’s Analog and Digital Design Challenges
MUSIC provides an open forum for users to gain expertise using Magma’s chip design software, and to exchange ideas about and solutions for the challenges of analog[
] and integrated circuit and system-on-chip (SoC) designs.
Over the years MUSIC has become a leading venue for Magma users to gather, share and learn best practices and solutions. This year’s program covers a range of Magma software capabilities including synthesis, placement and routing, floorplanning, clock tree synthesis (CTS), analog design and circuit simulation. Users will share useful tips on how to leverage Magma software to improve results, reduce power, minimize costs and increase productivity.
User presentations will include:
•A Fast Macro Placement Methodology Based on the Logic Group
•Implementing a System on Chip (SoC) using Talus(R)
•A Simulation Strategy for NAND Flash Memory using FineSim(TM)
•Timing Closure Techniques for Challenging Partitions in a Deep Submicron Process
•Accelerating Analog IP Design with Parallel SPICE Tools: The Design of a Wideband PLL with a Single Power Supply
•Handling Big Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) at the Post-Optimization Stage
•A Symmetrical Power Structure for the Repeated Blocks of a Hierarchical Design
•Several Ways to Solve Congestion Issues on Two Large, 65-nanometer (nm) Designs with Magma
•Dealing with Timing Closure Challenges on a 65-nm Design
•Clock Design and Analysis for a 40-nm, 500 MHz DSP[
•How to Implement 32 LPCAMs in One Chip using Magma
•Complex Clock Tree Generation using Magma’s CTS Solution
Magma will present a tutorial entitled:
•Solving Design Challenges Visually with the Talus(R) Visual Volcano(TM)
