Rapidus Corp. has signed an agreement with Synopsys Inc. to enable a solution that will shorten design cycle time, using a revolutionary new approach to natively model process sensitivity and variation in the design steps.

This new approach dramatically reduces the need for expensive re-characterization of libraries and memories during different phases of the process evolution leading to a significant reduction in design iterations and acceleration of the overall project execution cycle.

As part of the agreement, Synopsys will develop advanced design flows leveraging its AI-driven EDA suite and enable a broad IP portfolio on Rapidus’ 2nm gate-all-around (GAA) process. The collaboration will facilitate Rapidus’ Design for Manufacturing and Co-Optimization (DMCO) concept for simultaneously optimizing design and manufacturing and enabling agile design.
