Course Description
Note: This course is based on the Stylus Common UI. Please consult with your Cadence AE before deciding to take this course instead of the course called Innovus Implementation System (Block), which is based on the default UI and not on the Stylus UI.
In this course, you learn how to use the Innovus™ Implementation System software using the Stylus Common User Interface (UI) to achieve the best power, performance and area (PPA) for your design. You learn several techniques for floorplanning and placement using the GigaPlace™ solver-based placement while implementing timing closure strategies with a multi-threaded, layer-aware timing and power-driven optimization engine to reduce dynamic and leakage power. You will learn how to set up and run the concurrent clock and datapath optimization engine to enhance cross-corner variability and boost performance with reduced power.
You run the slack-driven router with track-aware timing optimization, which enables you to achieve the multiple objectives that are a part of today's design requirements. You will learn how to diagnose and fix routing violations as well as explore challenges and solutions for design implementation in nodes that are 20nm and below.
Other topics in this course include using database access commands, wire editing, metal fill, ECOs and physical verification.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Import and floorplan your design
