Magma Design Automation Inc.

The Magma Reference Flow for the IBM-Chartered 90-nm and 65-nm CMOS Processes provides a unified platform for the design and manufacture of high performance SoCs. Magma provides a complete, integrated RTL-to-GDSII system in a single executable that is based on a unified data model architecture. This tightly integrated architecture allows the system to concurrently address timing, area, signal integrity, power, DFM and design for test (DFT). The Magma system can also help designers to determine early on in the design flow whether they will be able to achieve their performance requirements. As a result, designers can improve the design's quality of results (QoR) with respect to area, timing, power and manufacturability and prior to handing off the design for manufacturing. Please visit the Magma website for more information.
