Cadence collaboration with Arm enables tape-out of next-generation mobile designs Cadence Design Systems has announced that a collaboration with Arm has enabled customers to successfully tape-out next-generation Arm mobile designs. According to Cadence, customers have successfully taped out mobile SoCs using its tools for the next-generation Arm mobile solution, which includes the Arm Cortex-X2, Cortex-A710, and Cortex-A510 CPUs, Mali-G710 GPU and the DynamIQ Shared Unit-110. As part of the collaboration, Cadence has fine-tuned its digital and verification full flows on 5nm and 7nm process technologies to drive adoption of the new Arm mobile solution on the Armv9 architecture. In addition, Cadence delivered 5nm and 7nm RTL-to-GDS digital flow Rapid Adoption Kits (RAKs) to enable customers to achieve optimal power, performance and area (PPA) and accelerate time to tape-out.
