Today, Siemens, a leading industrial technology company, announced that Certus Semiconductor (“Certus”) has adopted Solido™ software for custom integrated circuit (IC) design to accelerate development of Input/output (IO) and Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) library solutions for the automotive, aerospace, mobile, consumer electronics industrial, AI and IoT applications. This will help Certus strengthen its position as a leader in IO library, ESD and analog IP and enable the development of next-generation reliability devices and interfaces that meet the highest standards of performance and reliability.
"Certus Semiconductor has accelerated its IP development process using Siemens’ industry-leading EDA tools,” said Stephen Fairbanks, chief executive officer, Certus Semiconductor. “Analog is at the very core of what we design, and its quality cannot be compromised for the mission-critical applications we support. Our collaboration with Siemens enables us to enhance our methodologies tremendously with its custom IC verification technologies to keep pace with the increasing challenges of advanced process nodes and market demand for our products and services.”
"Certus' successful deployment of Solido Custom IC solutions across its workflow validates that AI is a game changer for mission-critical analog and radio frequency designs at advanced process nodes," said Amit Gupta, senior vice president and general manager, Siemens EDA, Siemens Digital Industries Software. "By bringing AI-powered performance and optimization to the entire workflow, we enable design teams to accelerate development for automotive, aerospace, and industrial applications while maintaining the precision and reliability these markets demand."
As a GlobalFoundries IP Alliance partner, Silicon Catalyst in-kind partner and recently inducted TSMC Open Innovation Platform Alliance partner, Certus specializes in specialty ESD solutions for radio frequency (RF), transceiver and high-voltage applications, multi-protocol IOs, RF radios and analog IPs including data converters, oscillators and regulators, with proven success with radiation-hard, automotive grade, low-power and area efficient customizations.
Certus (certus-semi.com) has successfully deployed its solutions across major foundry technologies using Solido™ Design Environment for nominal and variation-aware design verification, Solido™ Characterization Suite for .lib production and verification, Solido™ IP Validation Suite for IP quality assurance across design views, and Solido™ Simulation Suite for SPICE-accurate verification, all of which are part of Siemens’ AI-powered Solido Custom IC solutions.
