Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDNS), a collaborative partner in the Samsung Advanced Foundry Ecosystem (SAFE), today announced that Samsung Foundry has qualified the Cadence® Integrity 3D-IC platform’s 2D-to-3D native 3D partitioning flow. Using the new flow, customers can partition existing 2D designs into 3D memory-on-logic configurations and achieve better power, performance and area (PPA) with a homogeneous 3D stack when compared with the original 2D design. The flow also provides robust 3D-IC system planning, implementation and early analysis capabilities for the partitioned design, which is ideal for customers creating complex, next-generation hyperscale computing, mobile, automotive and AI applications.
