EDA Product Companies
In an industry such as EDA that evolves technically very rapidly, successful product companies need to bring their innovative tools to market as soon as possible. Only then will the company be able to profitably capture a part of the shortening window of opportunity.At the same time, the technology innovation in the specific EDA domain needs to be introduced in the market as a high quality product with an intuitive user interface.
Even if the technology is proven to be better than the competition, rapid adoption of the product will be governed by how the tool seamlessly fits into the designer's existing design flow and tackles the designer's domain specific issues. Also, the price point of the tool needs to be one that the market can bear.
Product introduction has to be followed by continuous effort on feature, performance and quality enhancement to stay ahead of the competition. At this stage, product customization to meet the requirements of individual customers can be a key differentiator.
SoftJin's offerings: SoftJin works with EDA product companies to help them develop, enhance and customize their products.
Our key offerings include:
-
1. New product development

DFM and post layout tool companies
At sub 90 nanometer geometries, the post layout tool development challenges include handling of huge layout data and performing complex geometrical operations in an efficient manner. SoftJin offers Nirmaan, that is a unique toolkit for EDA tool developers, which accelerates development of optimized post layout EDA tools, including DFM/DFY tools. Nirmaan is first of its kind development toolkit that addresses the development challenges of developing post layout tools in the nanometer era. It includes a lean and efficient geometric data organization and a host of fast geometrical operations commonly required for developing a whole range of post layout EDA tools, especially DFM/DFY tools.
Nirmaan provides the following key benefits for post layout EDA tool developers:
-
1. Accelerates time to market of your EDA tool by more than 2X. Nirmaan provides a ready-made, performance tuned and customized development platform so that you can focus on your core EDA development.
2. Enables scalability and high performance of your EDA tool, due to the scalable underlying geometrical data model and fast geometrical operations.
3. Seamless improvement of your EDA tool in terms of performance and support of industry standards as Nirmaan is enhanced further in future releases
