 ZMD AG, which specializes in mixed-signal ASICs, has entered into a strategic licensing and consulting agreement with MunEDA regarding MunEDA's DFM-DFY tool WiCkeD. In particular, collaboration will center on ZMD's automotive sensor systems-on-chip for "X-by-Wire" applications, according to MunEDA.
"After testing MunEDA's design and yield optimization tool WiCkeD in some very successful pilot projects, we chose it for analysis and optimization of analog and mixed-signal circuits and towards increased yield and robustness of our golden IP library," stated Thomas Hötzel, ZMD's Chief Technology Officer. "WiCkeD is well integrated into our standard design flow and supported by ZFOUNDRY's design kits for CMOS, DMOS and bipolar technologies. With MunEDA's leading tools for DFM-DFY on circuit level, we will ensure to meet the next level of design and quality challenges of our customers."
