Modern chip designing has become complex and increasingly challenging for teams worldwide. In order to quickly pinpoint design issues, linting tools have become invaluable. However, traditional linting tools are often too noisy and require a lot of effort to filter out the necessary information for optimization. As ASICs become larger and more complex, chip designers demand increased debugging efficiency to ensure a shorter turnaround time.
Synopsys VC SpyGlass CDC is one of the solutions that has changed the game, leveraging advanced machine learning algorithms and decades of industry expertise to facilitate SoC design closure. In this blog series, we have explored the power of linting and discussed theSynopsys VC SpyGlass Lint, which utilizes powerful machine learning capacity and root-cause analysis to make debugging easier.
The downside of traditional linting tools is that they demand time and effort to sift through the data and refine the violations. ML-RCA, on the other hand, has been proven to accelerate chip design by narrowing violations and finding a precise root-cause quickly. The key benefits of Synopsys VC SpyGlass Lint are the scalability of its performance and quality debugging, saving designers time and energy.
Synopsys continues to innovate and change the game in the field of linting. The company has achieved groundbreaking results in the area of chip designing, delivering ingenious products for years. Abey Abraham, General Manager for Growth Products and Solutions, is one of the key figures behind Synopsys’ success, providing decades of expertise across various tech areas.
In the future, linting will be increasingly powered by Machine Learning and Root-Cause Analysis. This trio of technologies will make debugging and chipset optimization faster, easier and more accurate, decreasing turnaround times and leading to higher quality results in chip designing.
