Magma enables Teradiant chip design tape outs

Magma Design Automation Inc., a provider of chip design solutions, announced that Teradiant Networks Inc. has taped out two multi-million-gate, 300MHz, 0.13?m hierarchical designs using Magma Blast Fusion, Blast Noise, and Blast Plan.

According to Magma, its integrated approach to hierarchical and physical design and signal and power integrity, enabled Teradiant to design full-duplex, multi-service packet engine, and traffic manager chips for 10Gbps to 40Gbps performance. Meanwhile, Blast Noise addressed signal integrity issues throughout the flow, eliminating time-consuming, and costly iterations.
