Linux version of Full-flow analog IC design suite from Tanner EDA

Tanner EDA has released a Linux version of the company's HiPer Silicon full-flow design suite, giving designers a complete analog design flow from schematic capture, circuit simulation, and waveform probing to physical layout and verification. HiPer Silicon v15.02 includes all the functionality of the recently-introduced HiPer Silicon v15 while allowing customers to choose between the Windows and the Linux platforms.

The key features of HiPer Silicon v15.02 include:
--A complete redesign of the waveform editor product, which provides designers with a signal analysis platform.
--Addition of a new database for storage and management of simulation data.
--Integrates with optional add-in HiPer DevGen

"With Tanner EDA now supporting Linux, we have been able to integrate their tools quickly and effectively into our wider Linux tool flow. L-Edit had proved an excellent addition to our flow, as it is easy to use, very productive and well supported by Tanner," said Professor Boni, CTO of Italina IC design house Silis S.r.l.

"HiPer Silicon for Linux is another example of our continued commitment to licensing flexibility and tool interoperability," offered Tanner EDA's product manager, Jeff Miller. "Realizing that many of our users maintain heterogeneous or hybrid computing environments, we continue to make our tool suite as robust as possible."
