The Cadence Innovus Implementation System provides an integrated solution for RTL to GDSII design flow and is equipped to handle the most challenging designs. Each stage of the design implementation flow, such as placement, optimization, routing, and clock tree synthesis, has unique capabilities that can help the user achieve better turnaround time (TAT) and power, performance, and area (PPA). The Innovus system architecture minimizes design iterations and provides the runtime boost you’ll need to get to market faster.
In this course, you learn how to use the Innovus Implementation System software using the Stylus Common User Interface (UI). You will learn several techniques for floorplanning and placement using the GigaPlace solver-based placement, implementing timing closure strategies with a multi-threaded, layer-aware timing and power-driven optimization engine to reduce dynamic and leakage power. You will learn how to set up and run the concurrent clock and datapath optimization engine to enhance cross-corner variability and boost performance with reduced power. You will learn how to diagnose and fix routing violations as well as explore some examples of design challenges and solutions. You will also learn database access commands, wire editing, metal fill, engineering change orders (ECOs), and physical verification. This course also covers the topic of implementing hierarchical design using the Innovus Implementation System starting from floorplanning, creating hierarchical blocks, placement, optimization at block and top level and closing timing. You will learn about the concept of blackboxes and flexModels, and explore the Integrated Hierarchical Database (iHDB)
