IC and ASIC Design Kits

Educational ASIC Design Kit (ADK)

The ASIC Design Kit (ADK) is an educational design kit providing all the requisite data, libraries, and documentation to create IC and ASIC designs using the Mentor Graphics suite of layout, synthesis, simulation, and DFT tools. It is an educational kit for use by universities and colleges in class work environments, and should not be used for design fabrication.

The ASIC Design Kit and its documentation are available to Higher Education Program members from the ASIC Design Kit website on SupportNet.

You will need to login to SupportNet using your account ID and password.

Foundry Technology Design Kits (TDK)

Mentor Graphics has teamed up with the world's top foundries to jointly develop and qualify technology design kits for our IC Design, Analog/Mixed-Signal simulation and Calibre IC Verification.

These design kits are available to Higher Education Program members who plan on fabricating designs, either with the foundries directly or with a multi project wafer (MPW) supplier. You will be required to show your eligibility for accessing a foundry kit, by providing your non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with either the foundry or MPW supplier.

Information on the foundry design kits, including online request forms can be found by visiting the Foundry Partners website on the Mentor Graphics website.
