Synopsys, a leader in software and IP for semiconductor design and manufacturing, has introduced Lynx Design Systems, a comprehensive and highly automated environment for implementing chips. Designed for scalable use in design organisations of all sizes, the Lynx Design Systems combines a production-proven ‘RTL TO GDSII’ design flow with productive-enhancing features to accelerate chip development while mitigating the risks of designing at new process nodes, Jai Durgam, senior director, Global Technical Services, Synopsys, Inc. said.

Lynx open architecture is optimised for rapid, out-of-the-box deployment with Synopsys’ Galaxy Design Platform and is inherently configurable to readily incorporate third-party technology.

The system address issues of companies being faced with allocating enormous internal resources to pre-validate design flows and libraries for a specific process or technology code, by enabling accelerated time-to-market without compromising design choice or performance. It helps in getting chips designed more efficiently and attacking total cost of design through systematic design flow management.
