Synopsys goes with Zuken Software

John Koeter, Vice President of Marketing for IP and Prototyping at Synopsys says: “To develop Synopsys’ highest performing SoC prototyping systems, we need a PCB design environment that can address the routing, signal integrity and timing margin challenges on these complex boards. Zuken’s CR-8000 met all of our requirements and we are using it to design the new high performance components in our next-generation HAPS systems.” Kent McLeroth, CEO Zuken USA Inc., says: “Synopsys and Zuken have a long history of successful collaboration, and we look forward to continuing this relationship. The size and complexity of Synopsys’ HAPS systems is exactly the type of challenge we had in mind when developing the next generation CR-8000 design platform.” Zuken’s CR-8000 a 3D, multi-board PCB design platform based on product-centric design principles.
