It's more important than ever today to have the latest solutions to address every aspect of your application. However, the ability to understand and integrate every core technology and methodology is beyond most individuals, so collaboration is becoming increasingly important in electronic design. We talk to Frank Schirrmeister, a Product Manager at Cadence, about collaboration and other aspects of the electronic design marketplace.

Recently, the company extended its collaboration with Arm to accelerate mobile device development using Cadence digital and verification tools and Arm Total Compute Solutions 2022. The latter includes the Arm Cortex-A715 and Cortex-X3 CPUs as well as Arm Mali-G715 and Immortalis-G715 GPUs.

Cadence delivered comprehensive RTL-to-GDS digital flow Rapid Adoption Kits (RAKs) for 5- and 7-nm nodes for optimized power, performance, and productivity. In addition, Cadence has validated mobile reference platforms for the CPUs and GPUs in the Total Compute Solutions package.
