Custom analog design services Successful custom analog designs require expertise in integration of precise analog functions with digital, memory, and passive components—while providing electrical and radio frequency (RF) isolation between those components. Chipmakers moving toward the ultimate goal of a single-chip solution are met with difficult challenges that require a broad set of skills and capabilities. Cadence has extensive experience in analog and RF designs in frequencies from DC to 20GHz, spanning a wide variety of process technologies. This broad domain expertise enables us to help customers create custom analog functions for many high-end custom applications including high-speed networks, wired and wireless communications, multimedia, medical, military, and aerospace. Our comprehensive knowledge of design tradeoffs at both the system and circuit level allows us to offer you the optimized solution while reducing design cycle time. We achieve first-pass silicon success in analog design by employing expertise in:
 | The design of high-performance ADCs, DACs, oscillators, VCXOs, and low noise/jitter PLLs |  | The design of filters for a variety of applications such as IF channel selection, post-demodulation data and noise shaping, and anti-alias and loop filters |  | Silicon-proven design methodologies—including substrate noise, accurate parasitic extraction, IR drop analysis, and electromigration analysis—necessary for success of deep submicron CMOS design |  | Advanced analog and RF device modeling |  | Advanced simulation strategies for reducing design time and optimizing circuit performance in area, power, and speed |  | Proven design strategies to minimize the effects of substrate noise on high-performance analog blocks in system-on-chip (SoC) design |
Cadence further leverages its IP Gallery of silicon-proven analog functions—such as Bluetooth and DECT transceivers, analog-to-digital converters, digital-to-analog converters, and phase-locked loop functions—to create or modify custom functions you require for a variety of SoC designs.
