Virtuoso custom design platform GXL
For designers who need leading-edge technology to create their designs, the GXL configuration of the Virtuoso® custom design platform delivers the most advanced capabilities, including expanded physical design features and an improved simulation environment. Its two key components—Virtuoso Layout Suite GXL and Virtuoso Analog Design Environment GXL—provide enhanced analog analysis and advanced chip finishing.
As the high-end custom block authoring physical layout tool for the Virtuoso platform, Virtuoso Layout Suite GXL supports custom digital, mixed-signal and analog designs at the device, cell, and block levels. These accelerated features provide advanced automation to accelerate custom block authoring. Included are device generation and editing, block floorplanning, automatic placement, and interactive routing.
The Virtuoso Analog Design Environment GXL helps center a design better for yield improvement and also gives designers access to the same advanced CIC environment used within the Cadence Allegro platform for creating system-in-package (SiP) designs.
Key Benefits
 | Accelerated block authoring through connectivity-driven features and flow, schematic or netlist, and correct-by-construction LVS correct layout to reduce verification iterations | | Increased productivity and design quality with constraint- and design-rule-driven features to automatically ensure design and process correctness in real time | | Simplification and optimization of device generation using a new menu-driven QuickCell feature or the standard SKILL programmable parameterized cells | | Efficient planning, placement and routing of large block designs with custom floorplanning, automatic placement, and advanced interactive routing features | | Enhanced analog design team productivity gains—up to 10x over manual methods | | Unique support for meeting new performance specifications, and for handling design reuse, technology migration, and ECOs. | | Advanced optimization algorithms improve design centering and yield |
