With nine technical paper presentations, two sponsored sessions, demos, and exhibits, Cadence will have a strong presence at ARM TechCon in Santa Clara, California Oct. 30-Nov. 1, 2012. Cadence papers and sessions will cover topics including advanced-node digital, mixed-signal, low power, verification IP (VIP), and embedded software development with virtual prototyping.
ARM TechCon is actually two conferences in one - a Chip Design Conference Tuesday Oct. 30, and a System and Software Design Conference Oct. 31 and Nov. 1. Here's what you can expect from Cadence during each of these conferences.
Chip Design Conference - Oct. 30, 2012
Exhibit: At Cadence booth #36, you can learn about an RTL-to-GDSII flow for ARM Cortex-A processors. Cadence will also demonstrate a mixed-signal solution for ARM Cortex-M0 based designs (for more information on this solution, see this recent ARM blog post).
Sponsored Session: In room #204, Cadence will present a full day of presentations, demonstrations, and customer experiences with Cadence technologies for implementing ARM Cortex-based devices.
