Case Study: Credo Semiconductor accelerates analog design migration and achieves up to 100X productivity with Synopsys ASO.ai

How Credo Semiconductor is Using AI to Accelerate Analog Design Migrations

Credo Semiconductor needed to migrate an analog VCO design between process nodes efficiently, a task that traditionally required extensive manual effort and fine-tuning. Using Synopsys ASO.ai, part of the Synopsys.ai EDA suite, they aimed to speed up the 5nm-to-7nm design migration while maintaining accuracy.

Synopsys implemented ASO.ai to automate the analog migration workflow and optimize device parameter values against target metrics. As a result, Credo cut migration time from multiple weeks to just a few hours, including setup, achieving up to 100X productivity improvement; the optimizer also completed over 10,000 searches in about 2 hours, versus several days or weeks manually.
