Reference design kit reduces design cycle by up to 12 weeks

Cadence Design Systems and Spreadtrum have developed a virtual reference design kit specific to Spreadtrum’s SC9830A quad-core system-on-chip (SoC) platform requirements. The kit is claimed to enable designers to accelerate their product and application design cycles by up to 12 weeks, including time spent on schematic design, PCB design and power-aware signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) signoff simulation.

This virtual reference design kit is intended to guide engineers as they design the Spreadtrum SC9830A quad-core SoC into a target PCB design. Using the virtual reference design kit, users can take the SC9830A reference PCB design and re-use portions relevant for their target design and adapt other portions as required.

The virtual reference design kit includes data examples and analysis models pre-populated for use in: Cadence Allegro PCB Designer; Cadence Sigrity PowerDC technology; Cadence Sigrity Power SI technology; and Cadence Sigrity power-aware SI flow for LPDDRn

John Rowland, svp of hardware engineering at Spreadtrum, said: “Our customers can now begin to optimise the cost and performance of their products to take advantage of all the Spreadtrum SC9830A features, while meeting accelerated time-to-market challenges.”
