The purpose of "Advanced Mixed-Signal Design using Cadence Design Tools" is to describe an advanced state-of-the-art mixed-signal design flow from an industrial point of view. The book details the advanced tools and methodologies necessary to design today's complex mixed-signal systems, based on the mixed-signal tool set from Cadence, the market leader in this segment of the EDA market. "Advanced Mixed-Signal Design using Cadence Design Tools" will cover all the different steps in the design process, from design concept to full layout realization. The intention is to focus on the real life problems that mixed-signal design engineers face in their day-to-day work and to provide solutions that can be directly applied to existing flows and design methodologies.
