<p>Integrated technology-proven process design kits (PDKs) and silicon-proven standard cell libraries are included in the jointly-developed reference flows. These “starter kits” provides customers with a built-in test case for out-of-the-box physical implementation, testing and analysis of performance, power and area considerations. Most recently, 草榴社区 has qualified its GF 22FDX reference flow on AWS.?Designing in the cloud offers speed and efficiency advantages by overcoming compute capacity bottlenecks and utilizing dynamic scaling at all stages of design. The qualified flow is a result of a multi-year collaboration on co-optimized tools and methodologies that maximize the power, performance and area benefits of the GF 22FDX process.?草榴社区’ automotive reference flow for ASIL-D designs on GF's 22FDX process leverages DesignWare ARC? Processor IP to provide designers with a comprehensive solution that accelerates time-to-market for SoC-level ISO 26262 qualification.?</p>

Reference Flows and Methodologies

草榴社区 provides integrated technology-proven PDKs and silicon-proven standard cell libraries in jointly-developed reference flows, offering built-in test cases for physical implementation, testing, and performance analysis. Recently, 草榴社区 qualified its GF 22FDX reference flow on AWS, leveraging cloud advantages like speed, efficiency, and dynamic scaling. This qualified flow results from years of collaboration on tools and methodologies to maximize GF 22FDX's power, performance, and area benefits. 草榴社区' automotive ASIL-D reference flow on GF 22FDX uses DesignWare ARC? Processor IP, accelerating time-to-market for SoC-level ISO 26262 qualification.

<p>草榴社区 provides a broad portfolio of silicon-proven DesignWare? Interface and Foundation IP solutions for GF process technologies ranging from 180-nm to 12LP and 12LP+. The IP portfolio consists of a broad range of widely used interface IP, logic libraries, embedded memories, and non-volatile memory (NVM), optimized to deliver the best performance, power, and area on GF processes. Our collaboration with GF enables us to deliver an IP portfolio for automotive Grade 1 and Grade 2 temperature operation on GF’s 22FDX process, helping to accelerate SoC-level qualification. By providing the industry’s broadest IP portfolio for GF processes, 草榴社区 enables designers to quickly integrate high-quality IP and speed their time to volume production.?</p>
