ASIC CAD/EDA Platform Support

Bring up, validate, and operatethe CAD/EDA layer cleanly

We support real ASIC environments on dedicated remote infrastructure: Virtuoso, licensing, ClioSoft SOS, PDKs, decks, verification, secure Linux workspaces, queues, migration, documentation, and post-go-live CAD operations.

AnalogDigitalLayoutSign-off

Best fit

Useful when the infrastructure is real and the CAD layer cannot slip.

  • New client-owned infrastructure needs CAD/EDA bring-up before designers move in.
  • An existing environment must migrate to new remote or on-prem systems.
  • Tools, licenses, PDKs, decks, access, and queues need to coexist cleanly.
  • The team wants documentation, handover, and dependable post-go-live support.

What we already deliver

Cadence Virtuoso Studio IC25

Install Virtuoso Studio IC25 and align the base client environment for real design work.

cdsmgr / FlexNet licensing

Configure license services, feature access, and operational handling for shared engineering use.

ClioSoft SOS Data Manager

Install SOS, create repository structure, and bring up the related license server.

RHEL / AlmaLinux platforms

Build production-grade Linux systems for secure EDA deployment and daily designer use.

Sun Grid Engine scheduling

Configure queues and distribute workload across clustered servers.

PDKs and rule decks

Install and maintain tsmc18rf, tsmcN22, gf12nm, and other PDKs with supporting decks.

Verification flows

Set up PVS, Assura, Pegasus, and Calibre for DRC, LVS, RCX, and related verification flows.

Secure remote operations

Deploy VPN, SSH, VNC, firewalling, backups, self-hosted access, and system hardening.

Delivery flow

How support usually works

01

Assess the current stack

Review the current environment, target flow, user model, network boundaries, and migration constraints.

02

Plan + document

Turn the target into an implementation plan, validation checklist, and working documentation.

03

Deploy + support

Install, integrate, validate with the team, and stay available after go-live.

Expected outcome

What the team should see

  • Stable CAD/EDA environment for designers
  • Tool, license, repo, and queue services operational
  • PDKs, decks, and verification flows validated
  • Remote access, security, and backup controls in place
  • Documented rollout with post-go-live support

What we need from your side

Technical prerequisites

Support model

Flexible engagement, simple structure

Scoping

Initial assessment

Short discovery phase to align tools, infrastructure assumptions, users, security boundaries, and first priorities.

Project-based

Implementation

Hands-on setup for tools, licenses, PDKs, workspaces, queues, validation, and rollout tasks.

Retainer or hours pack

Ongoing support

External CAD/EDA reference for day-to-day issues, changes, follow-up, and operational stability.

Enablement

Training and handover

Documentation and knowledge transfer for internal staff once the environment is stable and in regular use.

Next step

If the scope is close, the fastest move is a technical call.

Share the current systems, target stack, licensing assumptions, access model, and the first flows you want ready. We can align quickly on implementation scope, rollout sequence, and ongoing support shape.
