Mentor Graphics Corporation (NASDAQ: MENT) today announced that it
is working with GLOBALFOUNDRIES to provide mutual customers with a
reference flow that addresses the complex verification challenges
of IC development at 28nm and below. GLOBALFOUNDRIES' proprietary
Library of Yield Detractors Patterns and their innovative DRC+
physical verification flow are now implemented on Mentor's Calibre®
platform, which in addition to equation-based verification and
comprehensive DFM, now includes pattern matching-based design rule
checking capabilities for mutual customers, with support for
GUI-based pattern creation and library management enabling custom
rule development.
"By working closely with Mentor Graphics to combine our advanced
foundry models and process data with Calibre's signoff and DFM
capabilities, GLOBALFOUNDRIES DRC+ flow provides our customers with
the ability to more quickly release their design to fabrication,"
said Andy Brotman, vice president of design infrastructure at
GLOBALFOUNDRIES. "The new Calibre Pattern Matching product allows
us to simplify the specification of advanced DRC and DFM rules, and
improve the communication between designers and foundry personnel
by moving from a text-based representation of yield-detracting
geometries to a pattern-based one. As we all know from personal
experience, a picture is worth a thousand words."
"Our experience over multiple nodes in developing tools that
represent the manufacturing process to designers has shown us that
success depends on close cooperation among foundry, EDA vendor and
design teams," said Michael Buehler-Garcia, director of marketing
for Calibre design-side products at Mentor Graphics. "DRC+ is based
on collaboration that tunes our platform to GLOBALFOUNDRIES'
manufacturing process, making it easier and faster for designers to
create market-winning ICs on the most advanced processes
available."
