WiCkeD Tool Suite From MunEDA Selected By ON Semiconductor(R) to Improve Circuit Design Performance and Yield

Posted on: Monday, 21 April 2008, 06:00 CDT

MunEDA announced today that its enhanced DFM-DFY EDA software tool suite, WiCkeD, has been selected by ON Semiconductor to be used for performance and yield improvement in their leading edge analog and mixed-signal design flow and projects. WiCkeD will be used on worldwide basis including IC design centers of ON Semiconductor throughout US, Europe and Asia. WiCkeD is also fully integrated into the design flow of ON Semiconductor based on Mentor Graphics' custom IC design environment IC Studio with DesignArchitect-IC, Eldo and EldoRF.

"Having WiCkeD tested very successfully in several projects for CMOS, BiCMOS and Bipolar circuit design, we are convinced about the outstanding capabilities regarding circuit design performance and yield analysis and optimization features.", said Dr. Peter Zdebel, senior vice president and CTO of ON Semiconductor. "We will use the MunEDA tool suite WiCkeD on a worldwide basis to further address our customer's demand for high-end quality products within a still shortened timeframe."

"We are proud that ON Semiconductor as one of the TOP semiconductor companies worldwide has selected our DFM-DFY tool suite WiCkeD to be integrated into the design environment by ON Semiconductor to include its value to their design and IP porting projects." stated Andreas Ripp, MunEDA Vice President Sales & Marketing. "ON Semiconductor with its strong analog focus is an ideal user of WiCkeD to get aware of all of our solutions' benefits."
