Reducing IC design effort with easy-to-use reliable digital IC design flow
Aug. 19, 2022
IROC Technologies faced developing an integrated circuit (IC) - from scratch - with limited internal IC design resources. To meet the aggressive tapeout schedule, IROC needed to feel confident in the new design flow and software.
