The new Cadence RAK lets customers using the new Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33 CPUs:
- Experience a quick path to implementation via a full-flow digital and signoff reference methodology that provides optimal power, performance and area (PPA). The methodology incorporates the Cadence Genus™ Synthesis Solution, Innovus™ Implementation System, Quantus™ QRC Extraction Solution, Tempus™Timing Signoff Solution, Modus™ Test Solution and multiple Conformal® products
- Achieve fast runtimes and efficient design closure through the integrated Cadence multi-mode, multi-corner RTL-to-GDS flow, including the GigaPlace™Engine for power domain-aware placement, CCOpt™ Optimizer for low-power clock distribution and Tempus Timing Signoff Solution for final signoff-driven design closure to reduce total power
- Implement IoT devices using the complete Cadence low-power, multiple-power-domain flow using IEEE 1801 standard constraints, multi-bit cell insertion and the GigaOpt™ Optimizer for dynamic and leakage power optimization in the Innovus Implementation System.
