MEMSCAP Delivers MEMS Design Platform Through Cadence Platinum Program
OAKLAND, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 12, 2001--MEMSCAP Inc., a leading provider of telecommunications MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) components, today announced a strategic integration of its MEMS engineering platform, MEMS Xplorer(TM), with the system-on-a-chip (SOC) tool flow at Cadence Design Systems, Inc. MEMSCAP has also joined the Cadence® Alanza(SM) Group Connections® Program as a Platinum member.
The collaboration enables the two companies to co-market innovative design solutions for integrated MEMS-based products within high-demand industries, including wireless communications. The joint effort offers customers an optimized and proven data flow between MEMSCAP and Cadence SOC engineering tools. MEMSCAP is the only Platinum Partner specializing in MEMS design technologies.
``Cadence views MEMS as a strategic enabling technology for key markets,'' said Pat Dutrow, director of the Connections Program at Cadence. ``MEMSCAP's MEMS Xplorer, coupled with the strong IC and RF design solutions at Cadence, offers users a highly effective platform for development of system-level MEMS products for the fast-paced communications market.''
Cadence requires that Platinum Partners be market and technological leaders, providing a qualified solution in an emerging technology.
MEMSCAP's MEMS Xplorer for Cadence offers users the ability to design MEMS components from within the Cadence design environment, for complete system-level integration with the underlying chip or multi-chip module package. Users can move from schematic capture to automated generation of component layout, select from MEMS primitives, view cross sections and simulate etching.
The integrated product enables design teams to invoke FEM analysis, evaluate designs using 3D solid modeling, and seamlessly move between 3D views and layout. The MEMSCAP Technology Manager feature allows users to target designs to a number of popular technology processes and foundries.
Pricing and Availability
MEMS Xplorer is available immediately. A basic package including the MEMSCAP process technology manager, EasyMEMS primitives and cross section viewer, 3D solid modeler and layout generators is priced at $35,000.
