Our Custom Design & Manufacturing business is about building software solutions (tools, flows) for custom design, analog and mixed signal design. The custom product is used by our IP team extensively for all their products. We work closely with our signoff extraction, verification, and simulation teams to build differentiated solutions for designing and verifying advanced silicon analog and mixed-signal designs. We design the next-generation processes and models needed to manufacture those chips. We enable our customers to optimize chips for power, cost, and performance—eliminating months off their project schedules.
