Mentor Graphics enhances their custom IC Design tool suite, IC Station, with the acquisition of Pyxis Technologies. About the Acquisition
Pyxis Technology has created advanced analog routing engines specifically designed to handle the complexities and capacity of nanoscale IC designs. Pyxis Technology enables assisted custom design automation with integrated analysis for a true "what-if" exploration of custom analog design, and fast, high-capacity automated routing to complete IC layout. Pyxis technology will soon be integrated into Mentor’s custom IC solution, IC Station, providing advanced automated analog routing functionalities not currently available in the market today.
About Mentor Graphic's Custom IC Solution
Mentor Graphic’s Custom IC flow and its integrated schematic, extraction and simulation tools allow you to seamlessly take a design from system specifications to post-layout verification.
The IC Station tool suite includes applications for design capture, floor planning, polygon editing, physical layout, schematic-driven layout, and chip assembly.
