Course Description
In this course, you learn about the features of the Cadence® Genus™ Synthesis Solution with Stylus Common UIwith next generation synthesis capabilities (massively parallel, tight correlation, RTL design focus and Architecture-level PPA) and how SoC design productivity gap is filled by Genus. You learn several techniques to constrain designs, run static timing analysis, evaluate datapath logic, run physical synthesis, optimize for low-power structures, analyze DFT (design for testability) constraints, and interface with other tools in the Genus Stylus CUI. You will be able to identify the steps required to perform logic optimization for digital design and generate various input and output files.
You also learn how to run complete synthesis flow on a design with the given specifications and optimize it for area, timing, and power using theStylus Common UI. You will learn toquery the design database and set attributes for synthesis flow in the Genus Stylus CUI. You explore Multi Mode Multi Corner (MMMC) SynthesisFlow in Genus. You alsoidentify Flowkit and Unified Metrics capabilities.
