Magma Design Automation Inc. has announced that HDL Design House has adopted the full suite of Magma chip design software, including the Talus® digital IC implementation system and the Titan™ mixed-signal design platform. With Magma as its primary EDA vendor, HDL Design House will now be able to provide its clients with complete mixed-signal system on chip (SoC) design services, and be able to augment their current family of soft digital IP cores with analog IP. Its proven technology leadership was crucial in HDL Design House's decision to standardize on Magma's digital and analog implementation, simulation, and verification and characterization software.

Offering a truly integrated IC design system and highly automated flow, Magma provides designers with the "Fastest Path to Silicon." The Talus digital implementation system combines traditionally separate frontend and back-end chip design into an integrated flow that's designed to eliminate iterations between the synthesis and place-and-route processes, accelerate the design cycle and reduce IC development costs.
