Cadence Introduces Allegro X AI, Designed to Accelerate PCB Design Process, Can Reduce Turnaround Time by More Than 10 Times
Cadence Electronics (Cadence Corporation, NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced the launch of Cadence Allegro X AI technology, a next-generation system design technology from Cadence that delivers revolutionary improvements in performance and automation. Powered by the Allegro X Design Platform, this new AI product can significantly save PCB design time by reducing placement and routing (P&R) tasks from digital to Days shortened to minutes.
Traditionally, place and route in PCB design has been a time-consuming manual process that impacts time-to-market. Allegro X AI technology leverages the scalability of the cloud to automate physical design, delivering generative design of PCBs while ensuring the design is electrically correct and ready for manufacturing. This new technology automates device placement, metal plating, and routing of critical nets, and integrates fast signal integrity and power integrity analysis. Using generative AI capabilities, customers can simplify their system design process and reduce PCB design turnaround time by more than 10 times.
Allegro X AI technology offers the following advantages:
· Improve productivity: adopt scalable architecture, utilize cloud computing infrastructure, realize automatic layout and routing, thereby greatly reducing design turnaround time.
Better quality of results: Leverage generative AI auto-layout capabilities to enable feasibility analysis in the early stages of design. Go beyond manual methods to explore more solution possibilities and further optimize various metrics, such as reducing wire length while respecting design constraints.
· Efficient design closure: The Allegro X platform is tightly integrated with system analysis techniques, allowing users to optimize the electrical and thermal performance of their designs.
“Cadence is committed to providing system design solutions that integrate artificial intelligence and cloud technology, ensuring the fastest turnaround time,” said Michael Jackson, vice president of research and development at Cadence, “The new Allegro X AI technology strengthens Cadence’s PCB design Technology leadership with transformative impact, helping customers increase productivity through AI-driven automation, enhanced engine performance, and integration with Cadence’s system design and analysis portfolio.”
The new Allegro X AI technology supports Cadence’s Intelligent System Design™ strategy, which is designed to help customers accelerate system innovation. Visit www.cadence.com/go/AllegroXAI for more information.
